Hi Ted, hi Bryce,

I thought I had already declined...? And that as member of elections
committee, I were safely outside eligibility...?

I already know that Martin would jump in, but I'll ask him officially
 now ;)

Did anybody already ask Krzysztof (hope I wrote that correctly), Alex
Valavanis and Nicolas Dufour?

Kind regards,
 Maren
