Note: This list includes operations where validation material was
volunteered, ie not specifically required for credit to be given. In all
cases, cards now submitted will be accepted by Checkpoints if they meet
normal standards. This means that the island name must be on the card.

>>> ANNUAL UPDATE <<<
IOTA enthusiasts are reminded that the last date for mailing applications or
updates to checkpoints for inclusion in the 2003 Honour Roll and other
performance tables is 1 February 2003. If postmarked after that date, they
will be processed in the normal way but the scores will be held over to the
following year's listing.
Listing in the 2003 tables will be restricted to those members who have
updated their scores since February 1998. This implements the new rule in the
latest IOTA Directory that limits inclusion in the listings to those members
who update their scores at least once every five years. It is important that
members who have not updated since the 1998 annual listings and wish to
remain listed should make a submission on or before 1 February 2003. This
change should not have a major effect on the Honour Roll where almost all
members have updated in the last five years, but it could lead to some
reduction in the size of the main Annual Listing. Update now and keep your
score live!
"Lapsed" members should note that their records on the IOTA database have
been amended to reflect changes in Directory 2000 arising from the splitting
of a number of island groups. This reminder applies additionally to any
member who has not converted his/her record to the revised island listing
during the last two years. The maximum 19 credits concerned were either
confirmed or repositioned where HQ knew the correct group or, failing that,
deleted. Checkpoints should be able to provide information on revised scores
in time for replacement card action to be taken before the end-January 2003
annual listings deadline.
All members should be reminded that the final decision on acceptance of
credits is made at IOTA HQ and that this can mean downward adjustments to
scores at any time to reflect corrections of one sort or another.
Data-cleansing work is on-going and covers every member's complete record,
not just the latest credits added. Although efforts are made to alert members
to score changes, this cannot be guaranteed to happen in each case. Members
who are intent on monitoring their record closely should check their credited
score in the performance tables when published or, alternatively, directly
with their checkpoints AFTER their data has been recorded at HQ.
All applicants should base their submissions on the island listing in IOTA
Directory 2000 or IOTA Directory - 11th Edition, updated by the table above.
