[governance] yet another election forthcoming

[Ian Peter]

Thanks for posting that Jeanette. With our processes, we need quite a bit of
lead time to go through this.

Firstly we need an independent chair. Then a nomcom pool of 25 candidates
from whom our nomcom will be randomly selected, then a call for candidates
and selection of nominated names. So we should make sure we move on this
early in January.
