In a previous note on balloting for the draft IEEE Scheme standard, I stated that ACM members could join the IEEE Computer Society for $13. I was misinformed. The cost for 6 months of Computer Society membership is $23.50. They don't take 12 month membership applications at this time of year, and ACM members only get a break if they join the IEEE proper, which is considerably more expensive. Once more, you should be an IEEE or Computer Society member if you wish to ballot on the Scheme standard. -- Chris Haynes

I have been an ACM member for years. Recently, when I joined the IEEE Computer Society, I got a $5.00 break because I was a member of the ACM. I didn't have to join the IEEE itself. Hey, $5.00 is $5.00! Rich Alderson alderson@jessica.stanford.edu
