Nominations were received from Renata Aquino, Nighat Dad, Antonella
Perini, and Poncelet Ileleji.  There was an enquiry from a fifth person
about nominating, but due to some ambiguity over whether their
organization would be accepted as civil society, they declined to nominate.

This does, however, mean that we did not receive the minimum of five
nominations needed in order to run an election process.  Does anyone
else wish to run?  I'll also be reaching back out to the other person
who enquired, in case they wish to reconsider putting themselves forward.

Otherwise, maybe we can just draw upon the nominees as volunteers
without actually electing a steering committee?
