Hi Fabio, It's been great to work with you! It'll be good to see you on the Board too; it's good to have Board members with recent experience on Council. All the best, Martin On 15-09-13 08:10 AM, Fabio Ciotti wrote:

Dear friends,

this mail is to to tell you that I will not stand for re-election. This first experience in the TEI Council has been great and I have learned a lot, surely much more than I could give back. I hope anyway that at least some of my ideas and contributions to the discussion during our meetings and our mail list exchanges have been useful to help TEI grow and get better than ever. But from this year I will have to go back fully to my academic role, with a lot of teaching, research and bureaucratic work, sadly. And I have also to honor my commitment with AIUCD, EADH and ADHO executives. I think that serving in the Council requires much more time than I have, time to work on tickets, bugs, to to the hard but really important stuff, in the end. And I am sure that if re-elected I would occupy a place where probably someone else could do much more work than me. However, I would still contribute to the TEI Consortium, so I will stand for a position in the Board. I hope that, if elected, from there I can still help this great project to extend its role and presence in the DH and Humanities research community.

Sincerely,

Fabio
