Thanks! Since nobody else volunteered, are we in agreement I should go, then?
The following two questions are from the registration form, intended to help the organisers determine the summit program:
1. How does your affiliate work support the Strategic Direction? How does the Strategic Direction support your affiliate work? 2. What movement structures need to change to support you do your work better? What structures help you? What structures hinder you?
Given that they are about the user group as a whole, the answers should likewise probably reflect the user group as a whole, not just my own take on them (especially as my own take is largely just 'I don't really know'). Does anyone have any thoughts on these?

My vote is with Isarra! I have considered putting my name in for the running, but I think Isarra would be a much better option.
Happy Friday, all!
Best wishes,

Hey, all, this weekend is the last before the deadline (17th midnight, CET). So far I'm still the only one who's added myself as a potential delegate on the page, so if you're interested in going, please add yourself today and we can have a vote/argument tomorrow (saturday), or something. As long as you put in something better than my filler text, you're probably good. (Yes, I do intend to fix that today as well, but hopefully you've all already seen how bad it is by now.)

I just put in a very basic filler text example for myself, but that should... help kick things off, or stuff. I'll add more later when I'm not rushing out the door. -I On 27/11/2018 23:07, Lee Pennebaker wrote:Hey all, Relatively new member here. I've been reading these emails for a while now - I'm pretty excited to be a part of this group. I'd love to throw my hat in the ring for consideration of the summit. Please don't get me wrong - I don't mean to disrespect the traditions here in terms of preferring the seniority of delegates. This just seems like an unbelievable opportunity, and I would be honored to be considered in representing this group. I'm more than willing to learn more about this organization and complete the application process y'all decide on! And I completely understand if I am coming too far out of left field to be considered!
