Looking for endorsers for ACM Senior Membership

[Ken Burtch]

Just as I was going to let my Association of Computing Machinery
membership expire, it was pointed out to me that as of this year I can
qualify to become a Senior Member of the ACM. 

For details on the advanced memberships of the ACM, visit this site:

http://www.acm.org/awards/amg_call.html

Basically, a "Senior Member" is anyone who is recognized has having made
contributions to the computer community, beyond just holding down an IT
job.

In order to qualify for senior membership, I only need endorsements from
3 computer people who know me and are willing recommend me for my
contributions.

The criteria for membership are available here:
http://www.acm.org/awards/senior_member_nom_guide.html.  My book "Linux
Shell Scripting with BASH", my open source projects, PegaSoft
presentations, my Lone Coder column, etc.  may be acceptable criteria
for endorsing my nomination.

If you think my contributions to computing, open source or Linux should
be recognized by the ACM and you are willing to stand up and endorse me,
please email me.

If my nomination is successful, I'll get a shiny new membership card.
Whee!

Ken B.
