OASIS E-GOV TC : ebXML Messaging BALLOT RESULT

[John.Borras@e-Envoy.gsi.gov.uk]

It is with great regret that I have
to tell you that  we did not reach quorum on the recent ballot on
Graham Beaver's document.  Only 15 out of 41 members took the time
to vote.   I won't name and shame those who didn't vote.

This I find deeply disappointing, firstly
for Graham and the excellent effort he put into the document, and secondly
for the future of our TC.   This was our first ballot and we fell
at the first hurdle.  That doesn't inspire confidence for our future
work.   Hopefully this will turn out to be just teething troubles
and once we all get the hang of voting then we'll be OK in future.  
If not well.......

I'm going to re-run this ballot and
also put up a ballot on Eliot's Interoperability Services paper.  
Please take the time to vote this
time. 

John
