EFF: Tamara Lemmey neue Direktorin-.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- Gerade rechtzeitig vor der 10 Wiederkehr des Gründungstags der Electronic Frontier Foundation hat sich selbige Avantgarde eine neue Führung verpasst. Die neue Direktorin heisst Tamara Lemmey & bringt [siehe unten] eine eindrucksvolle vita electronica mit. Barry Steinhardt hatte das Amt im Spätsommer des letzten Jahres wegen Arbeitsüberlastung zurückgelegt & ist jetzt "nur noch" Ececutive Director der American Civil Liberties Union. -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- To: The Internet Community From: Lori Fena, Chairman, Electronic Frontier Foundation Date: Wednesday, February 17, 1999 Re: EFF's New Executive Director Dear Colleagues, It is with great pleasure that I announce on behalf of the Electronic Frontier Foundation that Tara Lemmey will be joining the Foundation as its new Executive Director. The executive search process that began last October was highly competitive and attracted applications from exceptional candidates from around the world. This year promises to be a very important one for Tara and the Foundation, as we are on the cusp of both a new millennium and EFF's 10th anniversary. We expect that Congress will be just as busy this year in drafting new Internet legislation as it was last year, during which over 300 bills regulating some component of cyberspace were introduced. In addition, EFF has two major First Amendment cases pending in federal courts this year, one challenging the government's export controls on encryption and another one contesting a new law censoring speech on the Internet under the guise of protecting children. This year will also mark an increased global focus for the organization, building on last year's important work in Eastern and Central Europe and continuing its involvement with the Global Internet Liberty Campaign. Tara is an experienced entrepreneur who has been involved with the Internet community for the last decade. She is a well-known data and privacy practitioner with private sector expertise in linking electronic commerce and media. She is the founder and board member of Narrowline and holds board advisory roles with TRUSTe, Metasound, and eNutrition. In addition, she has been an advisor to the U.S. Postal Service and Cybercash in the area of e-commerce. Her involvement last year with the Federal Trade Commission's Internet privacy hearings brought her to the forefront of the industry in the development of privacy practices through the cooperation of industry with government. Tara also participated in the White House Framework for Global Economic Commerce, the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) as an Advisory Board member for Technology and Society, and in the W3C's Platform for Privacy Preferences standard. She is a frequent speaker on a wide range of topics related to e-commerce, media, and privacy, including recent presentations at Internet World, Jupiter Communication's Advertising Conference, The Aspen Institute, the United Nations forum on electronic commerce, and PC Forum. On March 5, EFF's staff and board members will be hosting an open house in San Francisco for our friends, sponsors, and supporters to join us in welcoming Tara to the Foundation. I encourage you to stop by and introduce yourself to her and other EFF members. The event will begin at 5:00 PM and take place in our building's penthouse suite at 1550 Bryant Street (between 15th and 16th streets). Sincerely, Lori Fena, Chairman Electronic Frontier Foundation Relayed by Alex Fowler afowler@eff.org via gilc-plan@gilc.org -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- - -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- edited by Harkank published on: 1999-02-18 comments to office@quintessenz.at subscribe Newsletter - -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.-
