Representative
To: | The Members of INCITS/L2 |
From: | Jennifer T. Garner, for the INCITS Secretariat |
Subject: | CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS - Chairman - INCITS/L2, Character Sets and Internationalization |
The term of office of the current INCITS/L2 Chairman, Mr. Eric
Muller, will expire in January 2009. This call for volunteers
to serve as Chairman of INCITS/L2, Character Sets and Internationalization,
is being issued to the members of the committee and will close
on September 12, 2008.
Any representative of a voting member of the INCITS Subgroup is welcome to volunteer to serve. Before one considers doing so, however, the commitment in time and responsibilities should be considered. Officers must actively support the administrative structure that ensures due process to all participants, assists in reaching consensus and protects the accreditation of the entire system. [There is no limit to the number of terms an individual may serve. There is a rule prohibiting one individual from being elected to two or more offices of the same committee simultaneously.]
The INCITS/RD-2, Organization and Procedures of INCITS, generally describes officers' responsibilities, and a more detailed list of duties has been compiled in the INCITS/RD-3, Officers' Guide.
Those willing to make this commitment must submit three written statements in support of their candidacy:
The statement of management support for the three-year term is a good faith commitment, not a legal binding commitment. If future circumstances require the applicant to resign from the office before the term has been fulfilled, this will be accepted without prejudice.
The statements from candidates wishing to serve in the above referenced position on the INCITS Subgroup should be sent to the attention of Jennifer Garner (jgarner@itic.org) no later than September 12, 2008.
