[Equest-users] Expert in my area

Fri Aug 12 12:42:17 PDT 2016

As your friendly neighborhood IBPSA-USA Website/Editorial Committee chair,
I would definitely like to make this happen!

It has been discussed of course, though we need to resolve a few questions
-- like, we need to get IBPSA-USA members to "opt in" to allow their info
to be public, decide what info is shared, who can access this info (members
only or the world?), figure out how to automate/maintain it (we don't have
the resources that ASHRAE does), etc., etc.

If I could get a volunteer/committee member that could champion this for
us, we could likely get it done pretty quickly....  (hint hint, nudge
nudge)

Let me know if you are interested!
