Cocoon PMC chair election: proposed resolution

[Sylvain Wallez <sy...@apache.org>]

Dear board,

After Steven Noels had indicated on the private PMC list his wish to 
resign from the Cocoon PMC chair position, the Cocoon PMC voted a new 
chair [1], so we kindly ask you to ratify the following resolution upon 
the next board meeting:

                                 - o -

WHEREAS, the membership of the Apache Cocoon Project Management 
Committee (PMC) have nominated Sylvain Wallez to serve as chairman of 
the Apache Cocoon PMC; and WHEREAS, the previously appointed chairman of 
the Apache Cocoon PMC, Steven Noels, has resigned his position as Vice 
President, Apache Cocoon, in favor of Sylvain Wallez' appointment to 
that position.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that Sylvain Wallez be and hereby is 
appointed to the office of Vice President, Apache Cocoon, to serve in 
accordance with and subject to the direction of the Board of Directors 
and the Bylaws of the Foundation until death, resignation, retirement, 
removal or disqualification, or until a successor is appointed.

                                 - o -

There were a number of candidates for this election which each obtained 
their share of votes, showing that Cocoon holds a number of equally good 
candidates for this job.

Thanks to all. I'm proud and honoured to have been chosen to be the 
chairman of a project that brought me so much since I started using it 
about 4 years ago.

Sylvain
