conformance with operational directives
Alliance for the Advancement of Technology designates the AAT mission and Charter, AAT privacy policy, aatideas code of e quality, aatideas.org terms of use, and 'ICAS in use' policies as operational directives for purposes of conducting aatideas.org program operations. The administration and development of AAT programs are conducted with reference to these directives. An AAT review of operations affirms the continued use of these organizational policies and directives in accordance with the program mission and objectives, and that notwithstanding the interim status of a search for and recruitment of charter personnel, that AAT conforms with the laws under which it is established.
AAT can report that all program operations throughout the period of this report have operated in conformance with the designated operational directives as they are currently referenced in this report. Since the most recent previous annual report, a substantive version change process for ICAS (Integrated Chronological Applications System) remains in process. Any changes made to other operational directives such as the aatideas.org terms of use, the privacy policy, or the e quality initiative since the most recent previous annual report are not considered to be substantial.
fiscal reporting
Following the transformation from a previous system of fiscal-year reporting in NC 12005, AAT fiscal operations are organized in terms of a calendar year period. Fiscal information in this report moreover reflects the use of ICAS standards for uniform scales of calendar and clock. Interested readers can also look to this report as an example of 'ICAS in use'.
overview of organization
Alliance for the Advancement of Technology is established for educational, scientific, and literary purposes. AAT has operated in accordance with section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, with the California Nonprofit Public Benefit Corporation Law, and with the Minnesota Nonprofit Corporations Act. AAT is also striving to accommodate accessibility of programs for international outreach.
AAT continues efforts to promote education about technology in general, and about particular topics such as the environment and metrication. Some of the primary activities of AAT are the publication of educational materials on the www.aatideas.org domain web site, from which a large selection of AAT publications are available at no charge. In addition to actively developing and using ICAS standards for uniform scales of calendar and clock, AAT is also organizing efforts to accommodate harmonization of ICAS standards with other standards systems. These are initiatives that have been actively addressed by the organization, with some very appropriate acknowledgements to the works of a large number of other organizations and individuals.
status of aatideas fiscal operations
As a nonprofit organization, AAT has operated on a small scale by means of volunteer effort throughout the period of this report, with no employees or contract personnel. Yet AAT continues to anticipate organizational growth in terms of personnel or member human resources, to further focus efforts on promoting AAT mission objectives. Progress is being made in a number of areas related to aatideas.org program operations. There however remain some crucial needs for an organizational staff to include a secretary and treasurer, in addition to directors. During an interim period until such charter positions can be filled, all AAT programs continue to operate under the conscientious oversight of AAT programs manager Ron Stone.
Fiscal operations are processed in accordance with AAT operational objectives. AAT uses established accounting principles and methods of fiscal management to ensure integrity of financial operation. AAT has operated without any 'self-dealing' transactions or any arrangements that pose a conflict of interest.
Since the last annual report, residents of California can note that AAT was granted charitable exempt status by the California Franchise Tax Board.
Although a benefit event has not yet been scheduled, AAT will be glad to cooperate with Jazz for Peace toward raising funds and awareness for charitable initiatives. Those who would like to participate in a Jazz for Peace benefit for AAT as an attendee or as a volunteer are encouraged to contact Jazz for Peace or AAT.
AAT is supported by a small number of private contributors, and has operated on an annual budget of less than $5000 throughout the period of this report. AAT is continuously reviewing program operations to ensure proper reporting of fiscal information in accordance with applicable law.
AAT can affirm that there are no conflict-of-interest issues to report throughout the period of this report. There were no fiscal transactions or arrangements that warranted a review for conflict-of-interest. All program material used by AAT is used toward and with reference to operational directives.
There are no substantive changes to report with regard to the fiscal administration of intellectual property assets, or with regard to the administration of any tangible assets, for the organization since the last annual report. However AAT is reviewing the administration of AAT intellectual property for harmonization with the intellectual property policies of other standards organizations, including ANSI, ISO/IEC, LISA, OASIS, Unicode Consortium, and W3C. In accordance with AAT ICAS policy, AAT shall cooperate with coordinating AAT ICAS standards with the ICAS or ICAS-related standards of other standards organizations.
Throughout the period of this report (and moreover since NC 12002), those who have contributed ideas or guidance for program material to AAT have provided such without any fiduciary arrangement other than that the contributions support educational, scientific, and literary efforts. This does not mean that those who have contributed some ideas for AAT programming necessarily agree with or endorse a particular specification, or with a particular strategy for advancing metrication. Yet AAT is obliged to focus efforts toward educational, scientific, and literary dimensions of information development rather than toward political dimensions of information campaigning concerning how people should agree with a partial or special point of view.
AAT is further obliged not to needlessly duplicate other standards. However there are areas of practice that are not addressed by currently existing standards. As such users of information are sometimes really challenged whenever there is a question about how to appropriately cite from among constellations of a growing number of standards. And it is sometimes difficult for organizations to address issues of how to update standards and resources. AAT is always looking for ways to improve, and interested parties are encouraged to get involved. Get into the AAT business!
