Dear ISCA SIG officers,
 	
 We are very pleased to announce that the INTERSPEECH 2010 (Makuhari,
 Japan) organizing committee donated 10,000 Euro for encouraging ISCA SIG
 activities. We take the occasion of this message to renew the thanks of the ISCA
 board to the IS 2010 organizing committee.
 
 For each SIG, the support will be limited to a maximum of 2000 Euros, in
 order to open this opportunity to a maximum number of SIGs.
 
 Proposals should be sent to'special-interest-groups@isca-speech.org'.  Each
 proposal should include a description of the proposed activity.  All kinds of
 activities are eligible as long as they serve SIG activities (like scientific event
 promotion) or SIG promotion (improve or create SIG archives or SIG material
 available for ISCA members).
 
 This call for proposals is open on a continuous basis, and will end when the
 donation is completely used.  The ISCA board will proceed with the selection
 of proposals, looking both at the objectives of the activities and at their
 financial aspects.
 
Jean-Francois Bonastre,  ISCA President
Michel Picheny and Satoshi Nakamura, ISCA SIG Chairs
