[ALAC] [ALAC-Announce] Reminder: CALL FOR NOMINATIONS: ALAC Chair

[Alan Greenberg]

Nomination have not yet closed, but at this point 
both candidates have indicated that they do not 
see the need for a formal meeting. I am planning 
to run the ballot Monday-Wednesday in Panama to 
be able to announce the winner on Thursday 
(presuming that there is not another candidate 
and presuming there is not a tie, either of which would delay the outcome).

There will be adequate time for one-on-one 
discussions. And if anyone would like to pose a 
formal question to the candidates, we can request 
that they reply in writing on a Wiki page.
