For those of you who haven't been on the wiki (http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_UK_v2.0) recently, just to remind you that invitations have opened for members and nominations have opened for members of the Board. Nominations for Board members are due to close on Saturday.

Ten people have put themselves forward so far, although only seven have signed the candidate declaration and some may of course withdraw. Aside from the legal requirements (over 18, not bankrupt etc), the only requirement so far seems to be enthusiasm, something to bring to the table and the ability to attend meetings.

I'd encourage anyone who's thinking of it to put their name forward so that v2 can have the best possible pool of candidates to choose from.

Regards,
Andrew Turvey
