Hi Guys, I would like to introduce our new Co-Chair Andy Edmonds. He will take over the co-chair position from Ignacio Llorente. Ignacio founded this group with me and it has been a great pleasure to work with him. I would like to thank him for his help and great work. He will keep on contributing to the efforts of the group. The reason for this change in the chairing is that Ignacio got the great opportunity to work with the European Union on Cloud Computing! So again thanks for your help and all the best, -Thijs -- Thijs Metsch Tel: +49 (0)941 3075-122 (x60122) http://blogs.sun.com/intheclouds Software Engineer Grid Computing Sun Microsystems GmbH Dr.-Leo-Ritter-Str. 7 mailto:thijs.metsch@sun.com D-93049 Regensburg http://www.sun.com
Dear Thijs, please allow me a procedural remark: OGF requires that group chairs are chosen based on group consensus. Not that I think that Andy would not get group approval, but next time a chair position is replaced, it would be great if you could group feedback *before* doing so. Best, Andre. PS.: please update the chair replacement in your group's living charter: go to the forge group page, login, and use the edit button below the 'Project Info' subframe.

FWIW I have no problem whatsoever with this nomination and given Andy's solid contributions since the start (even if not always aligned with mine) I can't think of a better person to nominate. This is particularly true given the academic position being replaced and his work with SLA@SOI (which he has always been representing rather than his employer, Intel). If anyone does take exception to this procedural issue then I suggest taking it up with the co-chairs. Thanks Andy for volunteering your time, Sam PS.: please update the chair replacement in your group's

Hi, I will take that into account. For now I just want to highlight the work Andy does here in the group. And I'm sure in future he will continue helping us out here with OCCI :-) I also know how to make the changes - I'll take care of it. All the best, -Thijs On Tue, 2009-05-26 at 12:20 -0400, Andre Merzky wrote:

Dear friends, It was a pleasure to contribute to the foundation of the group. Let me add that Andy was also involved in the preparation of the BoF at OGF25 in Catania. Cheers, Ignacio -- Ignacio M.
