I'll begin with a couple of administrative items. First, IEEE is considering a change to its constitution. Before you all rush to your spare room to see if the new coat of off-white semi-gloss on the walls is still tacky, please read just a little further. Believe it or don't, this change is actually more than just org-chart poker or a change of logo: it has heavy impact on how IEEE will do business going forward and how the Societies (like AESS) fit in the governance picture. Please visit https://www.ieee.org/about/corporate/election/2016_constitutional_amendment.html to read all about it, and especially please note the “Statement in Support” and the “Statements in Opposition.” There are arguments both ways, and there are many people on both sides of the issue. Several IEEE Societies have made motions against the proposal, and our own AES Society Board of Governors struggled whether to do so as well. Many AES BoG members expressed concern, while some offered strong support. Anyway, just like it was in the UK in June, and just like it will be in my United States in November, the People need to make an informed choice on a difficult matter. “People,” here, means: You, the IEEE members. There will be a ballot distributed in the middle of August. Please do vote. This one is fairly important.
