  • 1.  Resigning as Co-Chair of ODF TC

    Posted 05-15-2015 09:36
    Dear TC members, in the last months my main work focus has been changed away from office document standards. It becomes more and more harder for me to spend the needed resources on ODF, especially on the tasks as a ODF TC's Co-Chair. Therefore, I am resigning as ODF TC Co-Chair becoming a regular TC member. For a smooth transition I am keeping the Co-Chair role for the next four weeks (until 2015-06-12) or until a new Co-Chair has been elected. I am in favor of having two persons leading the ODF TC. Thus, I already talked to Patrick. He agreed and is taking over the tasks to get a new Co-Chair elected. My involvement in ODF since 2006 will turn out in the future to a lesser extent. To see how we cleared all the "hurdles" to an ODF 1.2 ISO/IEC standard was one of the biggest highlights for me. Now, it is a good point for me to hand over my responsibilities to somebody else.
