		As the 2005 committer Board representative I have worked to: 
		<ol>
		<li>Improve the communication and teamwork effectiveness across all Eclipse Foundation projects </li>
		<li>Advocate for and implement improved Foundation infrastructure and process</li>
		<li>Represent at the Board level the needs of the committers from both small and large EF projects</li>
		</ol>
		<p>If re-elected for 2006, I will redouble my efforts in these three areas, particularly by supporting 
		the distributed teamwork and communication needs of the Eclipse committer community.  </p>

		<p> I believe the ECF project provides an opportunity to support the Eclipse community's communications needs with
		systems created fully in the spirit of Eclipse:  open (both software and protocol), extensible, interoperable, 
		and integrated.  </p>
