[Asis-standards] Fwd: [NISO nisovoting] Groups - Ballot opened: "NISO Board of Directors Directors Election (2013-2016)"

[Baden Hughes]

Of the 4 proposed, I know 2 of them - Usdin and Owens. I'd support us
voting for them - which aligns with some other comments here about
relevance, but there's also their standards involvement background which is
useful.

The other 2 I don't know at all.
