CM Pros: January 2006 Archives

Content Management Professionals (CM Pros) announced that Mary Laplante and Scott Abel have been elected to the 2006-2007 CM Pros Board of Directors and that Janus Boye and Mollye Barrett have been elected to serve on the organization's Management Committee as director of member relations and director of communications, respectively. Scott and Mary were elected to replace two outgoing Board members - me and Ann Rockley - whose terms expire this month. Seth Gottlieb, Erik Hartman, and Samantha Starmer remain on the Board until January 2007.

Over the past 15 months, the organization has grown to more than 600 members and continues to expand rapidly. It has been gratifying to see the organization grow, and a pleasure to work with the organization, which I will continue to do as a regular member. Congratulations to Scott, Janus, and Mollye, and especially to our own Mary Laplante! Also, congratulations to the other nominees for being willing (and very able) to serve, and for helping to make the organization strong by their participation in the election process.
