[HamWAN PSDR] VOTE: Board of Director Elections - Rob Salsgiver / NR3O

[Carl]

I'm a paying member, but not a voting member (yet - just haven't been paying
long enough).  Further, to be clear, I have no objection to Rob.

 

But I do have a procedural question.  Elections were announced, a deadline
was set, and has since passed, and the results announced.  I have not read
HamWAN's ByLaws or Constitution, but is it appropriate for someone to
nominate and be voted on after elections have closed?  What I sometimes am
is a bit anal-retentive over a charitable organization (of which I am
co-founder of one) following their established founding documents and
policies.

 

Thank you,

Carl Leon, N7KUW

Greetings all,

 

I've been a financial backer of HamWAN since fairly early-on if not the
beginning, and have supported things mostly in the background with a few
client installs in the North Puget Sound as time allowed.  (Providence
Hospital Everett, Evergreen Hospital Monroe, Bakerview apartments / SCHC
Repeater site, etc).  

 

The last 9 years I've been working multiple roles through the growth of a
local start-up that I've finally finished with.  Before that I was 20+ years
in various roles within "old school" IT ranging from PCs, Network/Sysadmin,
database,  security, project management, web design, etc.

 

I recently volunteered to join the NetOps crew to get up to speed on the
design and management aspects of HamWAN, having done enough with the client
configs to be comfortable.  Bart, Nigel, Tom, and others have carried the
load for a few years now and their available time seems to be getting less
while I'm at a point in life where I can take some on.  I see myself joining
the board for the first year to get familiar with how things currently are
running to better help transition and/or keep things going down the road
should the existing guys (heaven forbid) want to take a break and spend more
time with family/etc.

 

I am currently looking at an expansion / re-tool of SnoDEM to MIMO and back
to looking at getting Everett Clinic online, which has been idle due to lack
of time with prior job (no longer an issue).  At this stage I am more
interested in documentation/processes/procedures to capture what already
exists BEFORE all  of our founders win the lottery and tell us "adios".  

 

It is on this basis that I ask your consideration as a potential director
for HamWAN.

 

Cheers,

Rob Salsgiver - NR3O
