I believe this is an abuse of the process.

If 4 or more  other IGC members counter-sign this message,  perhaps with a +1, we request  that the appeals team review this decision by the coordinator - as defined under the charter rules.

Dear All,

Under the IGC Charter, the NomCom may be called upon to provide several
functions. In this instance, the NomCom as Ian had mentioned had served
previously to appoint the members of the Appeal Team. The NomCom was newly
drawn to serve the IGC in appointing the Appeal Team and have existed for
less than 12 months.

In this instance, since we are to give our list of Nominees to the IGC by
the 20th January, 2013, it becomes easier to use the existing NomCom. The
election candidates will include an additional question about MAG
Nominations which we will harvest and send to the NomCom, these persons
will be asked to submit their brief bios to enable the NomCom to make their
selections prior to the 19th January, 2013. This will then be posted to the
IGC and sent to the UNDESA.

Kind Regards,
