Subject:
Third Call for Volunteers - Convener, JTC 1/SC 25/WG 4 - Interconnection of Computer Systems and Attached Equipment
In anticipation of the expiration of the term of the current JTC 1/SC 25/WG 4 Convener, Mr. Gary Robinson, following the September 2006 JTC 1/SC 25 Plenary, two call for volunteers to serve as the US candidate for JTC 1/SC 25/WG 4 Convener were issued to the members of INCITS/10 and T11 and closed without response.
A candidate has come forward, and this third call for volunteers to serve as the US candidate for JTC 1/SC 25/WG 4 Convener is being issued to the members of INCITS/10 and T11 to identify a US candidate for endorsement and will close on July 26, 2006.
Any member of the US TAG meeting the requirements set forth below is welcome to volunteer to serve. Before one considers doing so, however, the commitment in time and responsibilities should be considered. Officers must actively support the administrative structure that ensures due process to all participants, assists in reaching consensus and protects the accreditation of the entire system.
Those willing to make this commitment must submit four written statements in support of their candidacy:
- A statement of experience, indicating the volunteer's expertise in the subgroup's program of work, voluntary standards efforts, committee experience and leadership abilities.
A statement indicating that the volunteer's organization is a member in good standing of the associated US TAG. A statement of management support for a three-year term on company letterhead acknowledging the additional workload, financial resources and duties required of an officer over and above that of a technical participant. This statement must be signed by the candidate's management and submitted on organizational letterhead.
The statement of management support for the three-year term is a good faith commitment, not a legal binding commitment. If future circumstances require the applicant to resign from the office before the term has been fulfilled, this will be accepted without prejudice.
- A statement as to whether or not the candidate is a representative of a US domiciled organization.
The statements from candidates wishing to serve in the above referenced position should be sent to the INCITS Secretariat's attention (jgarner@itic.org) no later than July 26, 2006.
