I currently serve, and have done since October 2010 as the ALAC Liaison to
the ccNSO Council, and *if* a Member of the ALAC wished to nominate me
*and* I was privileged to be selected, Please note that I would be most
willing to serve in this capacity for a FINAL YEAR of appointment whilst
training up and handing over to other suitable person(s) to be considered
next year. So yes I would be also seeking an 'apprentice or two' to work
with.
