Subject: Board of Directors Elections Results-- Update
|
Members,
In my earlier message regarding the results of the 2003 Board of Directors elections, below, I reported the election winners and who was selected by the current Board of Directors to break the tie for the fourth seat.
In addition to the end results, please know the fourth seat was a tie between Chris Kurt, Microsoft and Michael Weiner, IBM.
This year’s election presented an extraordinary pool of candidates, some difficult decisions when casting only four votes among so many qualified candidates—and an important reminder —every vote counts!

OASIS members,
The Consortium is pleased to announce the results of the 2003 OASIS Board of Directors election.
The following candidates have been elected to a two-year seat on the Board of Directors:
John Borras, UK Office of e-Envoy Eduardo Gutentag, Sun Microsystems Jim Hughes, Hewlett-Packard *Chris Kurt, Microsoft Corporation
*There was a tie for the fourth seat in the election. The current Board of Directors, with affected members abstaining, selected Chris Kurt from among the tied candidates.
On 30-31 July 2003, the new Board members will join existing directors whose seats expire in 2004, Edward Cobb of BEA, Colin Evans of Intel, Patrick Gannon of OASIS, and Laura Walker of The Federal Reserve System.
On behalf of the members and staff of OASIS, I would like to express our deepest appreciation to departing Board members, Simon Nicholson of Sun Microsystems and Michael Weiner of IBM, for their outstanding leadership and guidance over the past two years.
We would also like to thank each and every one of the 16 candidates whose time, talents, and commitment to the Consortium made this such an exciting and challenging election. We will rely on all the nominees for their continued, active support of the work of OASIS as we move forward together.
Finally, we would like to congratulate all the members of OASIS who participated in the election process, by raising issues for the candidates, evaluating qualifications, making tough decisions, and casting ballots.
It was the most successful election in the history of the Consortium--both in terms of the number of nominees and voting members--and it's a great way to mark the ten-year anniversary of OASIS.
Looking forward to continued success,
Scott McGrath Director Member Services
