Just a note to see if anyone is in the same boat as I am. NEH insists on
maintaining deadline of January 19 for proposals, unlike IMS which has
moved its deadlines to a more realistic date. Several weeks ago, I left
a message on the NEH voice mail system asking for application materials.
I have still not received them (though someone at NEH promised to fax me
a copy yesterday - I am still waiting). I have tried to explain to NEH
that they can`t insist on holding to a deadline on proposals for which
they have not sent out application materials, let alone had anyone in
the office to consult with. Maybe I am the only one caught by this, and,
if so, I will shut up and go away. But I would be interested to know if
this is a more pervasive problem. Could you let me know please?
