You don't need to be nominated or seconded to run for the Board of
Cyberspace. You merely need to indicate you are willing to run.

I'm surprised I don't show up as a participant, but that may be because
I only use the web interface for conferencing. In any case, I
appreciate the nomination, but I'm inclined to decline.

The part command is not working correctly.

Re: #40,
Thank you, but i'm afraid that i've already got more commitments than i
can pay proper attention to, and so must decline.

I'll add that I'm a bit on the fence about accepting. In the event that I
do accept, since I am also voteadm -- the way that's been handled in the
past is to have a second person verify the ballot count.
Also, I'll add my voice to those endorsing Jan Wolter. I hope he accepts.

I hope Mary will consider accepting, too. Though I know I can't vote for
anyone...

Although I appreciate being nominated, I'll decline this time around.
Some really good people are willing to serve. Cool.

Okay, remaining nominees have until the end of today (Nov. 30, EST) to
accept, should they wish to do so. The polls will open on December 1,
as soon as I know the complete list of candidates and have verified
their eligibility with the treasurer.
I've sent all declared candidates on how to create a "campaign
statement" viewable from the vote program. In the interest of
redundancy, I'll repeat the instructions here:
(1) Create a text file in your home directory named "statement" (note:
filename must be lower-case). The file must not exceed 22 lines in
length; each line should contain a maximum of 79 characters. If you
exceed these limits, the vote program will not display the entire file.
(2) Insure that the file is world-readable.
If you need assistance in setting this up, let me know and I'll provide
it. If you've been a candidate before and have an old "statement" file
lying around, you might want to edit it to insure that it's up to date.

I have decided to withdraw, given the wonderful field of exceptional
candidates. I believe there are more good candidates than seats, and would
will be supporting some of them in the election.

Sorry to hear that, Colleen. I've removed your name from the candidate
list.
The polls are now open. To run the vote program, type "vote" at a Unix
shell prompt, "!vote" at most other prompts, or from the web, go to
https://grex.org/cgi-bin/pw/voting-booth .
Anybody can vote, but only the votes of members in good standing will be
counted in determining the outcome of the election. The polls are open
through December 15 (EST).

I have to agree with #88's "more good candidates than seats." I hope those who
are not elected will agree to run again in the next election.
