Chair<BR></FONT><BR></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>Hello all and Happy New Year,
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I would like to announce that I am stepping down at Chair of the Local
Chapter, as I have not been able to put in the time required. I am passing the
role onto Richard Burcher, who I think many of you have met before. He is very
enthusiastic about open source and being the chair, so please give him a warm
welcome. Christy Nieman will stay on as co-chair.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I still hope to make it out to some meetings in the future.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Thank you,</DIV>
