Further to recent E-mails: the nominations for WOCMES awards closed at the
end of May. Before that I had nominated Dr Derek Hopwood, who had been
suggested by Ronnie Rogers, with the support of others in MELCOM-UK.
However, I have now heard from Prof. Meyer, Chairman of the WOCMES Board,
that because of an inadequate response from Board members, no further
awards will after all be made. Edward Said will therefore be the sole
recipient.
