1034.1nomination applications due Feb 10.SUBSYS::SUNDARESANFri Jan 31 1997 11:1927
The following have been apppointed Nominating Committee members 
this year:

(1) Maryellen Joyce      POWDML::JOYCE
(2) Maribeth Marcello    MSBCS::MARCELLO
(3) Ganesh Sundaresan    SUBSYS::SUNDARESAN (yours truly)
(4) Steven Eddleston     [email protected]  (current Director)
(5) Elaine Ritchie       ritel01@@cai.com   (current Director)

The two current Directors are non-voting members of the
Nominating Committee. My understanding is they are there
to facilitate process, and also to answer any questions
the candidates may have as to the responsibilities and 
time commitments pertaining to the job.

There are three Directors coming up for re-election:

(1) Christopher Fillmore-Gillett (Chairman of the Board)
(2) Dave Garrod
(3) Phil Gransewicz

If you'd like to volunteer for a Director's position, please contact 
the Election Coordinator (Patricia Coyle at DTN 246-6980) for an
application. Your nomination application must be received by her 
on or before February 10.

- Ganesh.
1034.2QUARK::LIONELFree advice is worth every centFri Jan 31 1997 18:164
Um, one is supposed to request, receive, fill out and return the papers in
five working days?  That's a bit tight, isn't it?

    My apologies for not posting the note earlier.. I had assumed
    that people actively seeking a Board nomination would have
    gotten word of the process from other sources. 
    
    I also confess I haven't been checking my US mail from DCU 
    very carefully of late. Wasn't there something in the mail 
    to all members regarding the nomination process? Relying
    solely on this notes conference for communication to
    members is probably not a good idea, since a sizable
    number of them cannot check in here. 
    
    - Ganesh.

No, I have not seen anything about it in the mail from DCU.

The Board openings and nomination process was in the January 1997 
Network news which  is sent to all members. You should have received
yours in mid-January.

No, I haven't seen one of those for a few months, and they're big enough that
I would certainly remember.  No matter - Pat is sending me the forms.

    Re .5
    
    Thanks, Gim.. I called Pat Coyle this morning and she confirmed 
    what you've said re the January Network news.
    
    In addition, I'm told that announcements were posted in all
    of our branch offices starting early January. Of course, that
    wouldn't be much use to those among us who never visit 
    a physical branch..
