[agents] FIPA wants you!

[Marc-Philippe Huget]

**sorry for cross-posting and multiple receptions**

Dear everyone,

FIPA (http://www.fipa.org), the standard body for agents and multiagent
systems, is certainly known from most of you thanks to its
specifications from FIPA ACL, its protocols and its implementations in
JADE to name one but do you know that FIPA is part of IEEE?

FIPA is about proposing its specifications as IEEE Standards. Obviously,
upgrading from FIPA specifications to IEEE Standards represents a
significant effort. As a consequence, FIPA is interested in augmenting
its number of members for working on the specifications and on reviewing
them.

Be part of this effort, join FIPA.

For those interested, send me (email:Marc-Philippe.Huget at univ-savoie.fr)
an email and you will be added as member of FIPA.

Note: Vote on specifications will only be available for active members (and IEEE member), that is members working actively on specifications.

Note 1: Membership for 2012 is free. No decision is made for the moment
for following years.

Do not hesitate to contact me if you need more information. Please
circulate widely this call inside the agent community.

Best regards,
Marc-Philippe Huget
FIPA General Chair
