WIT is a nonprofit organization for women who work in technology professions.

Barry C. West is the new CIO of the National Weather Service, succeeding Carl Staton, who has taken over the CIO mantle at the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration. West had been deputy director for e-government in the General Services Administration's Office of Electronic Government. Commerce Department CIO Tom Pyke had been serving as NOAA CIO during the search for a new NWS systems chief. West will begin his new duties May 6.

President Bush has nominated Navy Vice Adm. Richard W. Mayo, the service's CIO and director of Space and Electronic Warfare, to head the newly authorized Naval Network Warfare Command. As chief of NETWARCOM, which is set to open in June, Mayo will handle all Navy networks, information operations and space activities at the Naval Amphibious Base Little Creek in Norfolk, Va. He will oversee the Naval Network and Space Operations Command in Dahlgren, Va., the Fleet Information Warfare Center in Norfolk and the Navy Component Task Force Computer Network Defense in Washington. Other commands also will report to NETWARCOM for fleet support. Navy Secretary Gordon England authorized NETWARCOM last month. The Senate must confirm Mayo for the job.
