We, the Election Officers, hereby give notice of the results of the
2006 Board of Trustees election. The winner is Erik Möller, also known
as "Eloquence" or "Xirzon". Assuming that the Board endorses the
result and appoints Möller, he will replace Angela Beesley, who chose
to resign [1] earlier this year. The term to which Möller will be
appointed will cover the rest of the term for which Beesley was
elected, and will end with the ordinary 2007 election.

In total, 2347 valid ballots were cast and accepted; the specific
results are as follows:

 1st - 987 (42%) - Eloquence (Erik Möller)
 2nd - 702 (30%) - Mindspillage (Kathleen (Kat) Walsh)

We would like to take this opportunity to give our thanks to all of
the developers, translators, those people who supported and promoted
the election, and all others for their support and assistance for the
election, and especial thanks to Tim Starling.
