    I know many of you are getting ready for the holidays but before you leave for your vacations please send along any ideas that you may have for the future of IDTF! I have heard from 2 people - many thanks to them but I hope to hear from some other wise GODORT minds!


    I will post the midwinter agenda  soon and hope to send out shortly. At midwinter, I hope we can discuss some of ideas that we generate beforehand. 


    Some items that have been discussed include: Name changing of Taskforce to Interest Group, what are the goals of IDTF, are taskforces needed? - if so why? If they are what is their purpose  - advocacy, education, scholarship, community?
