Dear IGS Community Members,

The deadline to submit a proposal for the IGS Analysis Center Coordinator
has been extended to 15 June, 2024.

An "ACC Transition Information Hub
<https://igs.org/news/call-for-participation-for-new-igs-analysis-centre-coordinator-igs-acc-candidates/>"
has been established in the "News" section of the IGS website:

We will be adding information as it becomes available - including questions
and answers received by the ACCs thus far.

Best regards,
