So, engineering and post-workflow under one roof. Seems like a smart move to me

Here is a link to the official announcement:

This is an exciting initiative that will benefit the entire industry - from technical to creative professionals.
Stay tuned - Barbara Lange, Executive Director, SMPTE will be sharing more information in the coming weeks and months.
One assurance already communicated is that both organizations will retain their unique identities and culture.

I really like the SMPTE crowd, and they are doing a lot of great things. After HPA i'd like to see the production crowd pulled in (i.e. ASC - they can still keep their club house).
