Dear colleagues
Gary Edson proposition makes justice to the good work Piet Pow did for  
ICOM in these last months. We join other committees in recomending  
Piet for ICOM Honorary member.
We would also like to welcome Robert Spickler as interim Director of ICOM.

best regards

Carlos Roberto F. Brandão
