Happy to see the discussions on reactivating SIGs

Since election date is already announced and candidate nominations are already in place , I have a personal request for all candidates to refrain from SIG nominations till elections as a fair practice. 

I am saying this because of noticing GLAM hair nomination  and seconding of Arun by 2 candidates ie . Viswaprabha  and Netha Hussain.

Netha also expressed interest in nominating someone from woman members for Gender gap chair in another thread

Even though these actions are best in best interest of the movement, it will be better if candidates not nominating members to SIG positions at this point of time ,

Even though WMIN does not have any guideline or rule about this in election process , such moratoriums exist in real world elections once election is announced to prevent win trading . I am not saying Win trading is happening here . But it will be good if each candidate refrain from such situations till 23rd , till election process is over .  I dont have any objections for members other than candidates participating in SIG nominations
