[governance] URGENT: Call for candidates to IGC co-coordinatorship

[Mawaki Chango]

As I replied to someone before...

There is no pre-requisite other than being an IGC member. For interested
members and prospective candidates, I would encourage you to visit the IGC
website http://igcaucus.org/ and read the Charter, particularly the
provisions on the Co-co duties. The job will require what you see from the
outside and what you already know is entailed by coordinating a group such
as IGC) and in the back end the maintenance of the membership list
(responding to requests to join the list, etc.) then when the time comes
for election, do the kind of thing I'm doing right now for the online
election to take place.

The rest depends on what you have to bring and whether the IGC membership
is still willing to contribute substance or to engage in tit for tat
discussions while watching others submit substantive inputs. You see, I
cannot give you any specific quantification of the time commitment. The
only thing I can say to you is that you will survive, most certainly.
Cheers,

Mawaki
P.S. If you don't hear from me in the next couple of days, that will be
because I'm traveling and other duties will have to take the front seat.
