My work at IBM has changed and I'm no longer directly involved with document formats and editors. So it made sense for me to resign as Chairman of the ODF TC, and pass the baton to someone who can give this role the focused attention it deserves. The TC has elected Oliver-Rainner Wittmann as its new co-Chair, joining Patrick Durusau. Oliver is a long-time member of the ODF TC and an implementer of ODF in Apache OpenOffice.</span> <br><br><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>For the near term I'll remain as the liaison from the ODF TC to WG6, to provide some continuity.
