It occurs to me that I haven't sent any updates on this. As of the close of nominations on September 4, the following individuals had been nominated: Andrew Deason Marc Dionne Adam Glasgall Chaskiel Grundman Ben Kaduk Alejandro Sedeno Adam and Alejandro both declined before their nominations could be seconded. The remaining nominations were all seconded, but Andrew, Marc, and Chaskiel all declined, leaving Ben Kaduk as the only nominee. I checked with Ben, and he confirmed that he is willing to serve. In the event there is only one eligible nomination, no election is required, and the nominee automatically takes office. Therefore, I am pleased to welcome Ben Kaduk as the newest chair of this group. Ben replaces me as of October 1, and will serve through 2017. Mike Meffie's term continues through the end of September, 2016. -- Jeff _______________________________________________ AFS3-standardization mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/afs3-standardization
