Dear colleagues, <br>
This is an important message. <br><br>
We have received and are responding to a formal complaint [the procedure
for that is described at
<a href="http://www.isoc.org/isoc/general/trustees/select.shtml" eudora="autourl">
http://www.isoc.org/isoc/general/trustees/select.shtml</a> ] from one of
the chapter candidates indicating that Franck Martin has sent a note to
each chapter's representative (a) presenting himself as an advocate for
the specific chapter and (b) encouraging the chapter to read the
available information and to vote. <br><br>
<b>The Elections Committee encourages the chapters to vote</b>. The final
date for voting is <b>29th of April</b>. See all details at
<a href="http://www.isoc.org/members/vote/2006election/index.shtml" eudora="autourl">

The EC will publish on Monday a new round of questions at
<a href="http://www.isoc.org/tools/blogs/elections06/" eudora="autourl">
http://www.isoc.org/tools/blogs/elections06/</a>. This will give you all
the possibility to review the answers of the candidates before you decide
to vote. As you know, this year the last vote sent by the chapters, will
be the valid one for the elections. <br>
However, we must note that the partisan remark in the email and the fact
of it being sent outside the process constitutes a process fault.
<br><br>
