[governance] On opening and closing statements (Bill and Paul's

[Carlos A. Afonso]

I find this quite reasonable (at least my reason to vote for Jeremy was 
*not* to shut him up :)).

However, what are the possibilities of us finding new people? All the 
ones proposed thus far are old-timers in the process (I am not talking 
about physical age...). There ought to be good new speakers who could 
represent us quite well.

I can immediately think of Marilia Maciel from Brazil, but I am sure 
people in other countries/regions will have similar suggestions.

fraternal regards
