<div style="overflow-wrap: break-word;">Hello Everyone,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>It is once again time for our annual elections for the
HamWAN Board of Directors. Here’s a quick recap of the
main points for those that need a refresher.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Board member positions last for one year.</li>
<li>Any Supporting Member is eligible to vote for board
members.</li>
<li>Any Supporting Member is eligigle to run for a
position on the board.</li>
<li>There is no limit on the number of board members. If
you feel you would be valuable, you’re not taking a
seat away from someone else.</li>
<li>There is a minimum of 3 board members required by
the constitution.</li>
<li>Each board member is a separate election. IE you
don’t have to choose only one person to vote for, you
choose Yea or Nay for all individuals.</li>
<li>Please respond to the list here with your votes.
This serves as our public record.</li>
</ul>
<div><br>
</div>
</div>
<div>In the above, we make use of the term Supporting
Member, this is a specifically defined criteria in the
constitution, which are individuals who have contributed
at the Basic Level ($20/mo)(or more) for at least the last
6 months. Both the time and money criteria must be met to
count. I have asked Cory who has acted as Treasurer for us
for a number of years now to pull together the current
list of Supporting Members, which are listed below. There
have been a couple instances of employer matching this
year that we weren’t able to attribute a source to, so if
you feel that you’ve been missed in this list, I
apologize. Please reach out and we’ll get it sorted. The
current Supporting Members are:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Bart Kus</li>
<li>Bob Edmiston</li>
<li>Carl Leon</li>
<li>Casey R Hickerson</li>
<li>Cathy Jo Melton</li>
<li>Conny O Jonsson</li>
<li>Cory Johnson</li>
<li>David Giuliani</li>
<li>David Yost</li>
<li>Doug Kingston</li>
<li>Dylan Ambauen</li>
<li>Ian Gallagher</li>
<li>John C Miller</li>
<li>Kenneth Richards</li>
<li>Marc Lacy</li>
<li>Mark Sheppard</li>
<li>Mike Shirley</li>
<li>Nigel Vander Houwen</li>
<li>Randolph Neals</li>
<li>Robert Salsgiver</li>
<li>Ronald Zuber</li>
<li>Ryan Turner</li>
<li>Terence Chan</li>
<li>Tom Hayward</li>
</ul>
<div><br>
</div>
</div>
<div>I would like to thank everyone, Supporting Members and
not, for your contributions to the project. HamWAN
continues to grow, new clients, EOCs, and sites expanding
coverage are all great progress. There’s always more to
do, but I remain impressed at what we’ve accomplished with
a small core group of operations folks, and a dedicated
set of volunteers out in the field (with some overlap
between the two of course).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I have spoken with each of the current directors, who
have each expressed interest in continuing to serve if
re-elected, so here is our current list of directors up
for voting:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Cory Johnson - Cory has graciously handled HamWAN’s
finances and legal filings and reports for the last
several years. I very much appreciate his continued work
here making sure everything gets taken care of.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Rob Salsgiver - Rob has taken much of the project
organization tasks, which for the number of projects in
the field we have, is often like wrangling a herd of cats.
I very much thank him for his efforts, and I look forward
to what this summer’s work season will bring (and has
already started to bring in recent weeks).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Doug Kingston - Doug does much of the work managing our
inventory. As with above, with many projects going on,
keeping track of what gear we have ready to deploy and
what we need more of can be a significant effort. Thank
you Doug!</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Tom Hayward - Tom has done fantastic work over the
years both in developing several of the applications (like
the management portal, abuse detection, and more), as well
as often acts as one of our tower climbers for installs.
Certainly invaluable.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Nigel Vander Houwen (me) - I handle many of the
administrative tasks for the org. Record keeping for
technical aspects of the org like LoAs, handle any
contract items, and manage things like this email/vote.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>In addition to the current directors, I’ve spoken with
Bart Kus, who has been a director in the past, as well as
started the HamWAN project. He bowed out last year due to
personal issues, but has indicated he would be willing to
serve this year if elected. Thank you Bart.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>For anyone else who wishes to run for the board, please
send an email here to the mailing list announcing your
intention to run. The voting period on your election will
end 7 days after your announcement. Duties are not time
intensive, and mostly consist of being available for
occasional votes to approve expenses.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>This email will begin the voting for:</div>
<div>Cory Johnson</div>
<div>Rob Salsgiver</div>
<div>Doug Kingston</div>
<div>Tom Hayward</div>
<div>Bart Kus</div>
<div>Nigel Vander Houwen</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>
<div>Thank you all for reading this rather long email, and
I hope to continue working with everyone in this next
year.</div>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Nigel Vander Houwen</div>
