Dear Ramesh
Interesting your question
It is a non-profit organization for people who contribute without receiving financial compensation.
But that there are a lot of people making a lot of money, it is no less true :-)

We've often joked, PMI = Put Money In and now it seems that's the only input they will take! Hope the Board of Directors sees the folly of the current direction.

Dear Jim
I didn't know the new meaning of PMI :-)
Very good
For anyone who has been a member and volunteer for 9 years and enjoying the contribution of professionals and thinkers in the Project Management profession, it is sad

Humorous but also sad. I am hopeful things will get better. Now it is predominantly about the bottom line. They can disguise it but we aren't foolish!

Dear George
Thanks for your comment.
I am curious to know what was the answer they gave you
Will you share with us? Please
I sincerely hope that it is not a standard repeated message for everyone, that any computer would do it better

Dear George,
Somethig like this happened in this forum some two years back.
A valuable member benefit "Books 24X7" which had some 250 e-books were moved to market place ostensibly based on user statistics. There were spririted discussions and some felt PMI was getting detracted from its core values. Nothing really happened except a terse statement from a PMI employee reiterating the management decision. Lets see what happens to your letter. Its not that decisions should be cast in indelible metal. Flexible approaches are always good.

For time being I got a standard response "thank you for your concern, your message was forwarded to PMI staff that will respond within 5 business days". I'll keep you guys posted if I get any meaningful response.
