NetBeans' Governance Board Elections - Make Your Nominations

Hello all,

It's time again to elect a new NetBeans Governance Board! The process
has begun late and there was no reason for this delay other than a
misreading of the Boards' current term. For this I apologize. If there
are no objections, the current Board members will stay on duty until a
new board has been elected. This is expected to happen no later than
December 22, 2003.

Nominations and the actual voting results can be followed at,
http://www.netbeans.org/community/articles/board-2003-11.html.

***********************************************************************

Please submit your nominations for the community members you wish to be
considered for the NetBeans Governance board, by sending an e-mail with
their names to the [email protected] alias, or to
[email protected] e-mail (unlike nbdiscuss does not require you to
subscribe first).

The e-mail should contain a list of any number of names for the people
you would like to be included in the list of nominees and included in
the voting.

The DEADLINE for nominations is Thursday, December 4, midnight in the last
time zone.

***********************************************************************

 > November 20 - December 4:  Two-week nomination period
 > December 5 - December 19:  Two-week official polling period
