Temporary replacement of TAPPI Staff Starting in July 2019, Priscila Briggs, TAPPI Standards Department Manager, will be temporarily away from her activities, during her maternity leave. The Standards Department will have the support of Deborah Dodson, Standards Coordinator and Shayne Nicholas - U.S. TAG Administrator (temporary). For any questions related to Standards, TIPs or Useful Methods, please write to Deborah using the contact information below: Standards: standards@tappi.org TIPs or UMs: tip@tappi.org For any questions related to the U.S. TAG to ISO TC 6, please write to Shayne using the contact information below: ISO TC 6: isotc6@tappi.org TAPPI Standards Online Balloting System Update TAPPI will be starting to gradually re-open the ballots on the initial 20 Standards that were caught in the migration next week. HigherLogic set up a temporary Workspace that has the same look and feel as what we previously used. The prior ballot information has been loaded into this new site and we are gradually re-opening each of the existing ballots from the migration to give everyone a chance to vote. Once each ballot re-opens, voters will receive an email notification that includes a link to the new voting location with a message stating the ballot has been AMENDED. There will not be any changes to the existing ballots. If you have already voted, you do not need to do so again, but are welcome to log in and review your previous choice. As this is a different website, new usernames and passwords will be required for each user. Once you receive an email notification that your ballot has been re-opened, if you have any issues with logging into the new site or need your username or password reset, please contact Kristin Whitman at KWhitman@tappi.org Due to the migration failure that occurred, TAPPI decided to move to a different platform with Standards balloting and is currently testing options that better fit our needs. The site that we short listed and are currently evaluating will need some additional work completed, which will mean a longer set up timeframe than initially projected. We realize this downtime is affecting the Standards backlog so the above temporary solution (Workspace) has been put in place until our new platform is available. As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please contact Standards@tappi.org. Thank you, we appreciate your patience while we work through and resolve the migration issues and look forward to bringing you an improved balloting experience in the future! |
