Subject: [Fwd: [Personal] Resignation of Duane Nickull]
FYI. This does not affect my desire to participate and contribute to this group in the future. In fact, it will likely free up more time and resources for me to participate more fully. Duane -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [Personal] Resignation of Duane Nickull Date: Wed, 27 Aug 2003 17:48:20 -0700 From: Duane Nickull <duane@yellowdragonsoft.com> Reply-To: "UN/CEFACT TMG General Discussion List" <uncefact-tmg-general@listman.disa.org> To: "UN/CEFACT TMG General Discussion List" <uncefact-tmg-general@listman.disa.org> CC: Klaus-Dieter Naujok <klausn@attglobal.net>, UN/CEFACT eBusiness Architecture WG <uncefact-tmg-ebwg@listman.disa.org>, marion.royal@gsa.gov, agregory@aeon-llc.com, Stig Korsgaard <STK@Finansraadet.dk>, Matt <Matt@yellowdragonsoft.com>, James Bryce Clark <jbc@lawyer.com>, James Whittle <James.Whittle@apacs.org.uk>, Fred Federlein <Fred.Federlein@Sun.COM>, Jeffrey Lomas <jeff.lomas@oasis-open.org>, "Karl F. Best" <karl.best@oasis-open.org>, Jean-Jacques Dubray <jeanjadu@Attachmate.com>, Tim McGrath <tmcgrath@tedis.com.au>, "jon.bosak" <jon.bosak@Sun.COM>, Christian Huemer <ch@mminf.univie.ac.at> Dear all: I have participated in every single ebXML meeting since November 1999. I have always believed in the spirit and intent of ebXML and subsequent work. I am very grateful for the way I have been welcomed into the standards worlds of OASIS and CEFACT by all of you. Over the last 4 years, I have developed a deep respect for different points of view and learned a lot personally as well as professionally. At this point, however, I am announcing my resignation from UN/CEFACT as the project team lead for the UN/CEFACT TMG eBusiness Architecture Team as well as from my provisional position as the Chair of the eBusiness Working Group and the ebXML Jount Coordination Committee. Until such time as the eBusiness Architecture group elects a new project team lead, I will recommend either Marion Royal (current co-leader), Kenji Itoh or Monica Martin assume temporary leadership for the group. I have a great respect for each of their technical and leadership capabilities and will support them to help lead the group. According to the CEFACT ODP, I presume they will have to officially elect a new leader as one of their first orders of business. I do not make this decision lightly, nor am I directing blame at anyone for this decision. Recent events have been a factor in my decision however, I will not discuss these further. I hold every single person who has participated with me in CEFACT and ebXML in the absolute highest regard and have enjoyed working with you over the years. Out of respect for the friends I have gained and personal relationships with many of you, I will not discuss any more my reasons for my decision and hope to remain friendly to all those involved. I feel that my further participation will make me chose between "sides" and I do not relish that thought. I wish that all those in CEFACT will be able to move forward and put the recent events behind them. I also wish all those in CEFACT the best of luck in pursuing their future goals and will lend technical support on a friendly basis to anyone who requests it (beers are optional ;-) I have one request of UN/CEFACT - I would like my name to remain on the new UN/CEFACT eBusiness Architecture as it progresses to version 1.0 (as a contributor??). I believe that the architecture specification is a state of the art Service Oriented Architecture and will set a standard for future SOA's. Please keep the momentum going on this and other CEFACT work. It has been an honour serving with you all for the last 4 years. best wishes Duane Nickull -- Yellow Dragon Software Corp. - http://www.yellowdragonsoft.com Service Oriented Architectures - ebXML, Web Services, Registry, SOAP Project Team lead - United Nations CEFACT eBusiness Architecture +1 (604) 738-1051 *********************************** --- You are currently subscribed to the uncefact-tmg-general listserve.
