OASIS organizational voting

The Special Election for the Board of Directors needs your vote. Each member organization has one vote to help in this decision.  A quorum of Members must vote in order to make a decision.  So please vote before the ballot closes Friday, 26 January 2018 @ 9:00 pm EST Two very qualified candidates have offered their service, and we must select one.  You can review the candidates at  https://www.oasis-open.org/private/elections/2017boardspecial/   and vote at  https://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/voting/ballot.php?id=3159 Please know that in Board Elections, unlike most activities in OASIS, your vote is confidential.  At the close of the ballot we post the results, but not individual votes. Thanks for your participation in the ballot. Through your vote, you help us make the decision that best serves the entire organization.

Dear OASIS Voting Member, I am running for the current open board of directors seat. The reason I am running is I believe I can help OASIS get to the next level as a standards body, without failing in to the traps that have impacted other SDOs. OASIS has real potential, both from a prestige and a tooling aspect to enable great technical work to move forward. As a member, co-chair, or editor of several TCs and WGs across OASIS, IETF, and IEEE  I have intimate knowledge in how standards work, how they should work, and what process and policies make them successful. I would appreciate your vote. You can find the ballot here: https://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/voting/ballot.php?id=3159 Bret Jordan CISSP Director, Office of the CTO Symantec Corporation
