Dear Members of OCESTA:

Attached is a revised version of OCESTA Constitution and Bylaws,
which was submitted by the Constitution Revision Committee Chairman,
Dr. Chen-Lin Chou. Original draft was discussed at our 1st general
meeting in Toronto last October, and several changes have been made
following recommendations made at the meeting as well as through
e-mails.

I would like you to read this document and provide your suggestions
or comments directly to Dr. Chen-Lin Chou at <cchou@isgs.uiuc.edu>
before the end of this year. This document is essential to the future
of OCESTA, and your input and approval is extremely important.

With my best wishes to you and your family. Happy New Year!

I-Ming Chou
