How are we doing for numbers? Got enough for a possible 7 seat board, or am I going to have to wait 25 hours? [?]

Well, we're doing approval voting, which means even if we get seven candidates it doesn't necessarily mean we'll get 7 Board members!
In terms of the candidates you've applied so far - the simple answer is I know as little as you! Only the tellers know who's applied until the names are announced next week. I only know four definites who have said publicly they are standing (me, mpeel, Tango42 and Seddon).
I'd encourage you to stand - if you throw your hat in you can always withdraw after the names are announced if there's a crowded field!

Has Seddon said he's standing? Last I heard he was just thinking about it. If we only have 3 candidates, as is worryingly possible at the moment, then there won't be an election. The AGM will just have to pass a resolution appointing the 3 candidates and that's it. (Or, it could not appoint us and leave the chapter in a real mess, but I would advise against it!)
I can't speak for Seddon, but as far as I am aware he is fully intending to stand. I have submitted my nomination too - so we have 5 publically announced candidates.
