SLUG Election status - more nominations needed

Here's just a quick update about nominations received and election 
platform's of the candidates (so far only mine). Current as of 10 minutes 
ago. If there are any corrections or omissions let me know. Particularly 
if you've been nominated could you indicate whether you accept or decline 
the nomination.

The latest info is also on the website under 
http://www.slug.org.au/2005/election.html

Nominations
===========

Nominations listed in position order and then alphabetical order by 
surname. It was discussed on the list, and several people in touch with 
legal issues belive there is no reason people under 18 can't accept 
Ordinary Committee positions. The current committee has not voiced any 
objections.

President - no nominations received
=========

Vice President - no nominations received
==============

Secretary
=========

    Grant Parnell (nominated by Chris Deigan, seconded by Jan Schmidt, 
accepted)

    FWIW I don't think I did as good a job as Mary did (2003-2004) but at 
least I've eventually gotten things sorted out. There's lots of things I 
wanted to get done but didn't manage to do so. Therefor I'll publicly 
state my aims for SLUG in the coming year.

        * I want to get more youth involved because a) they have more time 
to do stuff and b) I like teaching stuff.
        * I'd like to hold monthly hands on workshops somewhere - Anyone 
got a club house with some storage available?
        * I'd like to see more audience participation at SLUG with things 
like debates, quizes, demos, mini-tutorials.
        * I'd like to hold the committee meetings via IRC.
