Good point. I think this goes back to when it took a year or so to get certified as an ALS, it seemed to me that the IPT gave up the last time I spoke to anyone there. I've personally tried to contact them through email and phone (I hesitate to just drop by uninvited, though their office is 2 blocks from where I teach).
The originator of their ALS is no longer with the firm, as I'm told. I've invited his associate to meet with me on a few occasions, but we never got together. If y'all would like I could put some additional effort into getting in touch with someone, as I do know how to find them.

The mere fact that an organization is on a list
doesn't imply that that they are participating. For
example, has anyone heard from the representative of
the Intellectual Property & Technology (IPT) Section
of the Hawaii State Bar Association?
