Hi!
I hereby nominate Jim
Marino as a Committer Member for the Steering Committee and
the Specification Committee.
Jim has been instrumental
in developing the assets under purview by EWDG and would be
a great addition to those committees.
Thanks,
Peter
The
Eclipse

charter identifies the four committees as the governing
bodies to drive various aspects of the working group for
which there are elected positions to be filled. At this

therefore this election will focus on the Steering and
Specification Committees.

positions:
Participant

Committer
