I believe I see enough nominees who have accepted to fill the open spots.
Denise, Chuck and STeve are running for re-election; Kent has nominated
himself, and Todd Plesco, Glenda Andre and John Remmers have been
nominated and not declined. There will be a full Board. There will even
be a contest if Todd, Glenda and/or John accept. I find this encouraging.

OK, so grex has been down for four days. Let's extend the acceptance
period for four days, and the election will be similarly delayed.

I appreciate the nomination, but I decline.
(I'm also ineligible, anyway.)

Aruba has apparently emailed staff to the effect that renewal notices
for memberships have not gone out in over a year and as a result
virtually everyone's memberships have lapsed. You have to have paid
three months current dues to run according to the bylaws. So not only
are few, if any, of these nominees currently eligible to run, but
there is the question as to who, if anybody, is eligible to vote. You
have to be a member to have a binding vote.
It seems like this election will therefore need to be postponed into
the new year. Which means grex may start 2010 without a board since
even the sitting board members cannot serve, and the positions
considered vacant, if *their* memberships have lapsed.

so what happens since no elections will have taken place before the
end of the year? current board members with expiring terms will
continue or does that require amending the bylaws?

re #36
current board members with expiring terms will
continue
Seems like the logical option considering the disruption in operations.

That "semi-cryptic email," IIRC, was sent before the most recent meeting
of the Board of Directors, during which the rules were changed.

We need to hold the elections soon, so we should close the nominations
within the next few days. Say by 1/15th. There are 4 positions
available. Four people have accepted nominations thus far [unicorn,
STeve, kentn, and denise] and two have nominated themselves [scholar
and lar]. There are a number of people that have been nominated but
have not accepted or declined; if you're one of these people and would
like to run, please accept by 1/11.
