> Dear All,
>
> I would like to nominate Wibke Sudholt 
> (http://www.baldridge.unizh.ch/~wibke/)
> for membership into the Kepler developers group.
>
> Wibke has been conributing the existing codebase and workflows she 
> developed
> for the Resurgence project as a trial account user. She is a chemist 
> by training
> and currently works as the Computational Grid Lead in the Baldridge 
> Group at the
> University of Zurich. I have been working with Wibke more than a year 
> now and
> she had been great to work with.
>
> The goal of the Resurgence (RESearch sURGe ENabled by 
> CyberinfrastructurE)
> project (http://www.baldridge.unizh.ch/resurgence/) is to build a 
> flexible
> workflow infrastructure for computational chemistry. It shall allow
> scientists to easily combine different external application codes, to
> prepare, run, and analyze high-throughput calculations, and to 
> distribute
> the most time-consuming steps onto a computational Grid. Up to now, the
> computational chemistry codes GAMESS, Open Babel, Babel, and QMView 
> were
> integrated, and further extensions are planned. The Grid distribution
> interface is general and based on the Nimrod toolkit for distributed
> parametric modeling (http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~davida/nimrod/), 
> but we
> also would like to make other execution possibilities available.
>
> Please respond to the list (kepler-dev at ecoinformatics.org) within 5
> business days (until wednesday, June 15th at 5pm) with any commentary
> and a vote as follows:
>      * Approve (+1) - Wibke should BECOME A KEPLER VOTING MEMBER
>      * Neutral (0)  -- NO OPINION
>      * Disapprove (-1) - Wibke should NOT BECOME A KEPLER VOTING 
> MEMBER*.
>
> *Note that a vote of Disapprove is a veto which guarantees failure of
> the vote, so if you vote Disapprove, you must provide a reason for 
> doing so.
> If we don't get at least 2/3 of the members casting a vote, we should
> probably ask for another vote or say that this vote has failed.
> If you have any questions about this process, please refer to:
> (http://kepler.ecoinformatics.org/management.html).
>
> *Note that only current contributing members of the project can vote.
