Nominees for 2009 Steering Committee Election
The following table lists those members who are nominating themselves for the 2009 Steering Committee election.
To add yourself as a nominee, simply edit the wiki page to add a new row to the table below. Please try to keep the list of nominees in alphabetic order (by company name, or for individual members, by person's name).
| Member [1] | Person [2] | Short write-up [3] |
|---|---|---|
| Microsoft | Bertrand Le Roy | Microsoft is currently a member of the steering committee. |
| TIBCO | Howard Weingram | TIBCO Software is currently a member of the steering committee. |
| Chris Schalk | In the past, when employed by Oracle, Chris chaired the Server Task Force at OpenAjax Alliance. He is now at Google where he focused on OpenSocial initiatives. He is now part of the effort to consolidate OpenAjax's pubsub technologies with OpenSocial technologies and has led efforts to bring OpenSocial into the Enterprise. | |
| (replace with company/organization name) | (replace with person name) | (replace with short text write-up on organization) |
[1] The "Member" is usually the name of a company or organization, but we have small number of individuals who are members, and they can run for Steering Committee, also. For individuals, simply enter your name in both the Member and Person column.
[2] The "Person" is the individual who is expected to be the primary person to participate in the Steering Committee on behalf of the given company or organization.
[3] The "Short write-up" is optional but recommended. It should provide a quick summary of the nominee's contributions to the Ajax ecosystem and contributions to date to OpenAjax Alliance, and (if appropriate) explanation for why this organization would do particularly valuable to have on the Steering Committee. Please keep it short. If you have a lot to say, then post the longer version somewhere on the OpenAjax wiki and link to the longer version.
Who can use the forms
This year anyone from an organization can enter nominations. Although we suggest that the organization's Primary Contact enter nominations and cast votes, the nominee form uses the OpenAjax participants database and allow anyone who is known to be a participant for a given organization to modify nominations for a given organization. The pages are programmed to cc: the Primary Contact each time an organization's nomination entry is modified.
