TP Team Vice Chair Needed

[Mike Rawlins <rawlins@metronet.com>]

Folks,

When I volunteered to serve as vice chair of the TP Team at the San Jose
meeting, I fully expected that I would be able to serve in an active
role for the duration of the team's work.  However, as some of you may
be aware, I am finishing my work on an M.S. in computer science this
fall.  I am taking 12 hours and still finishing up some work on my
thesis.  As both my course work and the TP team work has developed, it
has become clear to me that I can't do justice to both.  Therefore, I
regret to announce that I must resign as vice chair of the TP team.  I
will continue to participate as I am able and plan to get involved again
in December when the semester is over.  However, I don't believe that I
can participate as actively as a vice chair should.

If you are interested in serving as vice chair (which is an unofficial
but highly useful position), please contact the team leader, Martin
Sachs, at mwsachs@us.ibm.com.   As nominations are now open, I would
like to nominate David Burdett.  David had also expressed an interest in
serving at the San Jose meeting, and has been a very active contributor
to discussions on the listserv.  I think that he would do a fine job.

Please also note that the team still needs an editor.

Regards,
