|
Dear people, A ballot will soon be opened for the
election of persons to serve as at-large members of the OASIS LegalXML Member
Section Steering Committee. It will be closed on Monday, December 19, 2005, at
8:00 p.m. Eastern (5:00 p.m. Pacific) time. Three at-large positions for the year
2006 are open for election. Those who were nominated and agreed to stand for
election are indicated below (in alphabetical order), along with statements
they have prepared relating to their candidacy. An "Other" option
is provided in the ballot, e.g., for write-ins. Voters may vote for up to three
candidates. As I will be away from work and out of the
country for the coming week, please refer any questions about this ballot or
about membership in the Member Section or about eligibility to vote to the
current Chair of the Member Section, John Greacen, at john@greacen.net. CANDIDATE STATEMENTS Candidate Statements for At-Large Positions on OASIS
LegalXML Member Section Steering Committee: Don Bergeron:
"I wish to stand for election for an 'at-large' steering
committee member to continue to serve the OASIS LegalXML community. Since the
beginning of LegalXML I have been actively involved in the direct work on
standards and in the activities needed to acquire the resources to support the
TCs in their work. I have also provided advice on how to document
specifications for the development to use them most effectively. Through this I
have a healthy regard for the balance of pragmatism and idealism that I have
found in this community. It makes it worthwhile to serve." Tom Clarke: "I have a
long-term interest in better coordination of efforts between not only the
various Legal XML TC's, but also the broader OASIS standards family.
Our TC can benefit from meaningful liaisons with the other TC's in our
domain and the non-domain TC's." John Greacen: "The
responsibilities of the LegalXML Member Section Steering Committee are to
advocate the interests of the membership to the OASIS Board of Directors and
management and to decide how the Member Section's revenues will be spent
to further the activities of its Technical Committees. During the past
year, the Steering Committee has advocated for members in the areas of OASIS
membership, dues and intellectual property policies. We have been able to
use our resources for technical support services and TC travel leading to the
successful completion of the Member Section's first specification -
Electronic Court Filing 3.0. This will be the last year of my eligibility
for service on the Steering Committee under our Rules of Procedure. A
major task will be to assist another Steering Committee member in assuming the
role of chair." Thank you for your participation in this
election. Your obedient servant, Roger Roger Winters Secretary, OASIS LegalXML Member Section
Steering Committee and Program and Project Manager King County Department of Judicial
Administration 516 V: (206) 296-7838 F: (206)
