requests from Chris North

Over email:

would you be willing to make the following additions to the VIS website to advertise the VIS dissertation award nominations?

1.  add to the Important Dates page  http://ieeevis.org/year/2017/info/important-dates :
IEEE VGTC VPG Doctoral Dissertation Award — CALL FOR NOMINATIONS
DEADLINE: August 15, 2017 at 5PM PDT
http://vacommunity.org/ieeevpg/bestthesis/ 

2. Perhaps on the main menu on the left side of the page http://ieeevis.org under Associated Events | Vis Pioneers Group
a link to:   Doctoral Dissertation Award Nominations  http://vacommunity.org/ieeevpg/bestthesis/ 

#1 seems easy, #2 may be tricky

We're waiting to hear back about ok from ross and jim.

The latest email says to link the best thesis page directly on Vis Pioneers Group on the left sidebar.
That's done for now and sent for review.
I'm assuming if it's wrong they'll let us know.

via email, Chris said the changes look fine. closing...
