We have completed the first of three phases for the establishment of the
new International Laser Ranging Service (ILRS) Governing Board. All of
the Ex-Officio and Appointed Members have now been named by their
respective organizations. In addition, a few candidates have been
nominated by their peers for the remaining elected posts as indicated
below. We are now preparing to begin the first round of elections; this
includes all elected posts with the exception of the two At- Large
members.
