[ISSHA] HAB Conference Proceedings Guidelines

Dear Beatriz,

Do not take me wrong: I am not against to have guidelines for the proceedings.

But the way to "tell the organizers of a meeting 
for which they will be working like mads to put 
together" and who and not should be in the 
committee and who should be the editors, I am 
very much against. It is the "wording" in the 
document that sounds "dictatorial", and could be 
written in a more polite way.

Best regards,

Edna
