[NA-Discuss] Previous Nominations

Tue Jun 4 15:33:45 UTC 2013

NARALO'ers(-ites?),

We had a "false start" to the election period last week, there was a rush to
release a schedule which had not yet been discussed or approved.

In order to avoid any dispute over eligibility, I ask that any nominations
made before Monday 3 June 2013 be re-stated NOW.

Thank you for your cooperation!

-Garth
