Members
The current SIGSEM membership counts 877 members. We have started cleaning up the database with members, by removing registered members whose email addresses aren't valid anymore after a couple of email bounces, of people who we can't reach otherwise. There is an active, moderated mailinglist. Our website, SIGSEM, is wiki-based and is regularly updated by SIGSEM's information officers.
