To all OPENMPEers
Just to add my 2 cents worth.  I think you all are focusing on the elections
numbers too much.  We should really be discussing the issues at hand with
HP.  Isn't that what we are charged to do??  Lets get down to business and
move on already.

I have to agree with Chuck.  With all the discussion about being under the
NDA with HP, then refusing to release the vote count (which won't change who
was elected) seems like more attempts at hiding something from the members
of OpenMPE.

Isn't that the impression that the new board will try to AVOID?   Refusal to
share the voting numbers only fosters the feelings of being kept in the
dark.

Whether or not there is a precedence in sharing the vote, maybe this can set
new precedence of OPENESS with the "Open"MPE group?
