Dear DM-L,
You'll have seen the announcement posted recently concerning the Digital Medievalist Elections 2010, and I would also like to encourage you to vote in the elections. Digital Medievalist as a project and community of practice has grown steadily over the last few years and most of this is down to the hard work put in by the DM Board. The DM Board does more than merely oversee Digital Medievalist, it is a working board and all board members have contributed their time and energy, whether it is in copy-editing journal articles, arranging conference sessions, moderating news posts, or any other range of activities. It has been my pleasure to be Director of Digital Medievalist for the last year and we've undertaken some significant improvements to the way it works and hopefully it will continue to thrive in the future.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the current and previous DM Board members for their hard work, enthusiasm, and commitment to Digital Medievalist. I would especially like to thank those DM Board members who have chosen not to stand again this year, Roberto Rosselli Del Turco and Dorothy Carr Porter, for their generous work over many years and hope that they will continue to be active DM volunteers. Marjorie Burghart and myself have chosen to add our names again to the very strong ballot of candidates up for election.
Digital Medievalist is made up of all of the people who are part of this community: Digital Medievalist is not just the DM Board, but all of us working together. If you are receiving this email, then you are part of DM-L and thus part of the Digital Medievalist community. I would encourage any DM-L member who wants to contribute to the ongoing efforts of Digital Medievalist to take the first step in actively participating by voting in this election.
A reminder that candidate biographies are available at:

and that the ballot itself is available at:

Many thanks,
Dr James Cummings Director, Digital Medievalist
Kudos to the nominations board for bringing together such a strong slate of nominees.
I'm off the board this year and have decided not to run again. I've enjoyed participating in DM officially and really look forward to being an active voluneer (as you may note, with my recent queries to the listserv re: organizing sessions, DM mentoring, and a lunch at DH. Speaking of which - don't hesitate to contact me or the list if you are interested in any of those initiatives!)
Thanks, Dot

I've enjoyed working with you guys a lot, and I'm very happy of the constant growth of our little community during the past years. Having been in the board right from the start, I feel it's only fair to let somebody else take active part in DM activities, and help with running the Journal, the list, etc.
Keep up the good work!
Ciao
Roberto
