- The contact for IEEE TCOS mailings is
-
- Charles Habermann
- NAPS International
- 117 Mackubin Street, Suite 6
- St. Paul, MN 55102
- U.S.A.
- +1 (612) 224-9299 (voice)
- +1 (612) 222-2924 (fax)

- I suggest that you contact him, and he should send you a form to be
- filled out and returned, together with payment, to the IEEE. The idea
- is that you pay in advance for 500 page units of mailing at $30 each.
- Subscribers do not have to be IEEE members. Overseas subscribers must
- pay an additional $400 for express delivery independent of how many or
- few units that they pay for. (This has always struck me as a rather
- strange approach -- why not just bump up the cost of each unit if
- express delivery is required?)
-
- The form allows one to specify the groups (1003.x, 1201,z, 1224, 1238)
- in which one is interested, and whether one wants to receive all
- paperwork or just draft standards.
-
- I am not aware of any way in which individual drafts can be obtained.
- I suspect that that's what Fletcher really wants.
