Dear JXTA Community,
Over the next month, we will be holding our annual elections for Board of Directors. As stated by our community governance at https://jxta.dev.java.net/govern.htm, two of our board members are elected bi-annually from our JXTA Community. The elected board members for this term ending June 30, 2008 are Vanessa Williams and Daniel Brookshier, and our upcoming board elections will be to fill both open seats.
The schedule for this year's elections will be:
- Call for nominees: Monday, May 19 - Monday, June 2, 2008
- Elections: Tuesday, June 3 through Tuesday, June 17, 2008
- Result announcement: Monday, June 23, 2008
- Term starts: July 1, 2008
I ask each of you to think about the importance of leadership within our community and think of who you'd like to see on our JXTA Board of Directors. JXTA Community Members can nominate themselves or other qualified members from our community. I will be sending out the call for nominees next. More details about the process will be in that email.
PLEASE NOTE: We also have a second issue up for community vote this year. We have had a proposal from the board that in addition to electing board members, we will also elect committee heads for the following committees: Website Management, Release Management, Project/Community Management, and Technical Documentation Management. These positions will be included, along with the board member positions, in the call for nominees, the elections, and the results announcement.
If there are any questions about the upcoming voting, please contact me at stephanie.kaul@sun.com or send questions to the discuss@jxta.dev.java.net mailing list. I thank you in advance for your participation and support of this very important community activity.
Best wishes and have a great weekend!
Stephanie Kaul 
JXTA Community Manager
