Dear CG Community,
	You may recall that the Computational Geometry Steering Committee
was elected in May of 1996 for a term of two years. It is therefore time
elect a new committee.  I write you now to call for nominations. 
	The current committee is: 

		Nina Amenta
		Bernard Chazelle
		Herbert Edelsbrunner
		Joseph O'Rourke (Secretary)
		Mark Overmars (Chair)

The committee organizes the annual SoCG (Symposium on Computational
Geometry), conducts its business meeting, serves as liaisons to other
organizations (e.g., FCRC), and so on. 
	We will conduct the election in the same manner as before. Any
member of the community may nominate any other member by sending me (the
Secretary) email by the deadline (see below).  Nominations for past
committee members are allowed.  It is not necessary to check with those
whom you nominate. 
	After nominations have been received, the Steering Committee will
contact those nominated and ask them if they are willing to serve.  A list
of candidates will then be prepared and circulated via compgeom-announce. 
The community will be asked to vote for five from the list.  The five with
the most votes will then become the new Steering Committee. It will be up
to them to select a Chair and otherwise organize themselves.  All of this
should be completed in time for SoCG at Miami Beach June 13-16. 
	To nominate someone, send email to

		orourke at cs.smith.edu

with "Subject: Nomination" by 11:59PM Sunday May 2, 1999. We look forward
to hearing from you!

				Joe O'Rourke
				Secretary
