The 2011 Election results were just posted, congratulations to Adam Jorgensen, Denise McInerney, and Rob Farley for taking the top three positions and earning a two year term on the Board. Thanks to Kendal Van Dyke, Sri Sridharan, and Geoff Hiten for being candidates this year – I hope you’ll give it another run next year!

This is an unusual year in that the election doesn’t end the defining of the 2012 Board. With Mark Ginnebaugh and myself leaving effective December 31st there will be two open seats on January 1st. Both seats will be filled by the Board for the remainder of the open terms (one year). In past years that has been done by picking the next highest vote getters. It’s not a requirement to do so, it’s just been – in my view – the fairest way to do it provided there are candidates available. I hope the Board will move quickly to confirm the two appointees so that they can fully participate for the year.
