I am pleased to be your GGAC chair this year. My intent is that we can develop the grassroots involvement of our design community. To that effect, NAC is working on a new communication initiative where we will be accepting inquiries about code application, technical details, and general procedural items and allowing the membership to share their interpretations and experiences.

Our intent is that this will allow our membership to establish the current position of the design community, especially the grassroots participants who are involved in the production of designs. If successful, the membership will be provided with insight to what the general consensus is with regards to technical matters and help each other through discussion and sharing of knowledge.

I look forwards to working with our membership on this initiative and hope it will provide value at the fundamental grassroots level.
