An open letter to IFPUG members: Board of Directors Election
(This letter is not authorized by IFPUG or IFPUG's Board of Directors)
Four Board of
Director Candidates speak out on the Issues!
I offered all of the candidates running for the IFPUG Board
of Directors the opportunity to answer one question to be posted on the Software
Process and Measurement Cast (SPaMCAST).
The question was “in your opinion what is IFPUG’s most significant
problem and if elected what would you do about it." Four of the eight candidates took me up on
the offer. I have packaged their answers
on this special edition of SPaMCAST.
Note, I did no editing on
these responses. Also the fact that
they’re appearing on SPaMCAST is not a recommendation by me or IFPUG. It is merely a public service for the
membership.

Commentary:
As in IFPUG member you have a deep interest in how IFPUG governed.
Board members have a significant hand in whether new ideas are embraced or the
status quo maintained, whether offerings are expanded or maintained. Your vote for the members of the IFPUG Board
of Directors is an important tool for you to make your voice heard. If you’re voting member in good standing (one good indication is whether you
paid your dues) you should have recently received a ballot in the mail or an
e-mail with instructions on how to vote if you have not received one or both
please:
- Validate
you are a voting member. Remember
that corporate members have the specific people identified as voting
members.
- After
validating your voting member make sure you paid your dues for the 2007 –
2008 year.
- If you still think you are should have
received a ballot contact the office at IFPUG@IFPUG.org and please copy me
at tcagley2@oh.rr.com
Voting is an important obligation of membership. Voting is part of the theme of involvement I
will be stressing when I become president later this year. Begin your involvement with IFPUG by
voting.
Note this entry will be posted at www.IFPUGpresident.wordpress.com. I will be update this blog periodically
during my presidency. I’m looking to serving you on the Board of Directors.
If you are interested in software process or measurement the
Software Process and Measurement Cast is a great opportunity for you to listen
to such a people in as Kent Beck, Capers Jones, Will McKnight, Mary Poppendieck
Dave Garmus, Scott Goldfarb and many others.
