Committee Spec Voting Results

[Kelvin Lawrence <klawrenc@us.ibm.com>]

Here are the results for the three committee
spec ballots. As you will recall for a committee spec vote to pass (become
approved) at least 2/3 of the voting members must vote "yes"and
no more than 1/4 must vote "no".  The number of voting members
eligible to vote in this ballot was 57.

Thanks to everyone who voted in this
important ballot. We will discuss next steps on our WSS TC call tomorrow.
