Re: [board-discuss] Electing a BoD chairperson and it's deputy
Hi, so, the board has elected Florian Effenberger as chairman of the board and Thorsten Behrens as his deputy. we had 6 out of 7 board members voting (making a quorum). Each of the nominees got 5 votes (as Florian and Thorsten abstained to vote on their own seat). To support the decision we also received 2 supporting votes from deputies. See http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/board-discuss/threads.html#02188 I'll update the website accordingly. Congratulations to Florian and Thorsten ;) regards, André Original-Nachricht Datum: Thu, 01 Dec 2011 19:55:51 +0100 Von: André Schnabel andre.schna...@gmx.net An: board-discuss@documentfoundation.org Betreff: [board-discuss] Electing a BoD chairperson and it\'s deputy -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Dear Board members, according to the current draft of the foundation's legal statutes (as proposed to the German authorities), the foundation's board shall elect a chairperson and the chairperson's deputy among the board's members.

Hi *, so let me take this opportunity to thank you all for trusting us in this - not only the board, but also all our members who originally voted for us. You folks really make the difference, and I'm both honoured humbled - with those last pieces falling into place, let's see to get this foundation from bootstrapping into establishment then.

Hi, Italo Vignoli wrote on 2011-12-06 01:47: Guys, congratulations. I think we should at least blog about this announcement. I volunteer, but I cannot write anything before mid week. thanks! Indeed, we could also announce the other results in case we haven't blogged them yet (not sure). I probably shouldn't do it in the official blog, since I was elected, that would look rather odd. :-) Florian -- Florian Effenberger flo...@documentfoundation.org Board of Directors at The Document Foundation Tel: +49 8341 99660880 | Mobile: +49 151 14424108 Skype: floeff | Twitter/Identi.ca: @floeff -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to board-discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/board-discuss/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
