AGM 2005

Annual General Meeting 2005 of the SDL Forum Society
The Annual General Meeting of the the SDL Forum Society was held at the Agder University College, Grimstad Norway on 21 June 2005 during the 12th SDL Forum. The business of the meeting was as follows:
  • Approve the minutes of the previous AGM;
  • To receive and adopt the report of the Board and the statement of accounts for the year;
  • To elect the Board for the coming year;
  • To consider any proposed resolutions from the Board or members for changes in operation of the Society in future, including (but not limited to) Society Events, standardisation work, member benefits and subscriptions.

The 2004-2005 Board nominated Martin von Löwis as Treasurer to replace Uwe Glässer who did not stand for re-election. There were no other nominations and the Chairman and Secretary were re-elected.

The current Board is therefore:

  • Chairman - Rick Reed, TSE, UK.
  • Treasurer - Martin von Löwis of Menar, Hasso-Plattner-Institut, Potsdam University, Germany.
  • Secretary - Andreas Prinz, Agder University College, Norway.

The resolutions with formal updates to the constitution were agreed (with a minor change).

There were no proposals to hold a fifth SAM workshop in 2006, but is was agreed that Board should organise a workshop.

Other matters discussed are covered in the minutes of the meeting (available to members only).

R. Reed

Chairman.
