Dear DM-L subscribers,
The Digital Medievalist Executive Board elections are now open. To vote, please fill in the brief survey at:
http://surveymonkey.com/s/DM-elections2012
You do _not_ have to be a medievalist to vote, nor highly technical. If you are on the DM-L mailing list (where this message has been posted), then that is the only qualification needed to vote. The only information we ask is to confirm the email address you are subscribed with and choose (up to four) candidates to vote for. There is an optional question for feedback about DM at the end. The biographies of the candidates are available on the survey page. Any personal information will be deleted afterwards.
We have a good slate of seven candidates with a wide range of experience to choose from. The DM Executive Board is responsible for the running of DM and the day-to-day management of its outputs such as the journal, wiki, this mailing list, and conference sessions. One of the first tasks of the new DM Board will be to choose a new director (potentially from among one of the newly elected members).
The survey will close at midnight GMT at the end of: Friday 29 June 2012.

What a superb set of candidates! I found it very difficult to vote. Thank you both to the current board and to the people who volunteered to stand for providing such a strong slate.

I have to say that I agree that it is a strong slate of candidates and that this is good sign for Digital Medievalist.
For those who haven't looked at the ballot yet, the candidates are:
Alexei Lavrentiev (ICAR, CNRS & Lyon University) Barbara Bordalejo (University Saskatchewan) Grant Simpson (Indiana University) Orietta Da Rold (University of Leicester) Takako Kato (De Montfort University) Timoty Leonardi (Capitulary Library of Vercelli) Toby Burrows (University of Western Australia)
I think this shows a good spread (by geography, by discipline, and by gender). And makes me confident about the future of Digital Medievalist.
As many of you know, I'm forbidden from running again by the bylaw changes that I encouraged to be made last year setting a limit on consecutive terms by board members. It has been a pleasure being director of DM for the last 4 years.
As such I would encourage you all to vote! There are 760 members of the DM mailing list, and so far (ok, after not even 24 hours), only 25 have voted!
It is a quick few clicks... Vote now!
