Letter from the ISOC Elections Committee:

On behalf of the entire Elections Committee, we extend our
appreciation and thanks to all of the candidates who stood for
election for the ISOC Board of Trustees.  ISOC is honored to
have such well-qualified candidates.  In addition, the level of
interest in this year's elections from ISOC members is a positive
sign as to the importance and visibility of ISOC's work.

For the election of Trustees by Chapters, we had four candidates
and a total of 56 out of 76 (73%) possible ballots. The percentage
of chapters participating was much greater than last year.  Four
of the ballots arrived after the formal deadline. Erring on the side
of inclusiveness, the Elections Committee choose to accept these
ballots. In the final analysis, the result of the election would have
been the same whether or not they were included.

One position is to be filled for a three year term.  In addition, one
additional position opened up this year due to an early vacancy.
ISOC's election procedures require that this vacancy be filled by
the individual receiving the second highest number of votes in the
Chapter elections. This individual will serve a one year term (the
remainder of the current term). After a complete count, the results are:

    Patrick Vande Walle,   22 votes
    Dr. Alejandro Pisanty, 20 votes

As such, Patrick Vande Walle is elected to a new three year term and
Dr. Alejandro Pisanty is elected to fill the vacancy for the coming year.

For the election of Trustees by Organization Members, we had four
candidates and total of 52 of 78 (67%) possible ballots.  The percentage
of organizational members participating was much greater than last year.
In this election, the procedures called for the election of two candidates,
each to a three year term. We had two ballots abstaining, and a total of
8 ballots that voted for a single candidate, in effect abstaining in the
second vote.  In the Organizational Member election, ballots are weighted
according to the level of membership. After a complete count, factoring in
membership-level weighting, the results are:

    Desiree Miloshevic,   30 votes
    Dr. Hiroshi Esaki,    23 votes

As such, Desiree Miloshevic and Dr. Hiroshi Esaki are elected for three
year terms.

In a separate process, Olaf Kolkman, the chair of the IAB, reports that the
IETF has selected Ted Hardie to serve for a three year term.

Per http://www.isoc.org/members/vote/2007election/, there is a challenge
period in which issues may be raised concerning the election. The challenge
period closes at 23:59 (UTC) on 30 May and the new Trustees will be seated
at the ISOC Board of Trustees Meeting in Puerto Rico on 30 June.

The Election Committee again thanks the candidates, the voters and the
ISOC staff for making this a very successful election. The voter turnout in
this case was much higher than in recent years and the election was
conducted with the highest of standards.

We wish ISOC well.

Fred Baker, chair
Carsten Schiefner
Sébastien Bachollet
