about the authors
who developed the guidelines
 

The editors extend their acknowledgement and appreciation to the many hundreds of professional association members and members of the public who took time to read these guidelines when they were posted on the internet in draft form. Comments, suggestions, additions and corrections that were sent to us as a result of these efforts were essential to both the quality and utility of these guidelines.
