All,
At present, myself and LondonStatto are likely to be tellers for the AGM (and the planned EGM). However, I'm hoping that there will be someone else who would be willing to step forward to help administer the election in an impartial manner (eg counting votes, deciding lengths of statements, etc. This would need a few visits to the office (expenses paid) and a little bit of a time commitment. Prior experience would be helpful but not necessary.
If you're interested, please let me know privately.

EGM? Is this still planned given the governance recommendations? On Feb 15, 2013 12:23 PM, "Richard Symonds" < richard.symonds@wikimedia.org.uk> wrote:

I think it's actually finally being organised *because* of the governance recommendations.

Exactly. I believe that the board wanted to wait until the recommendations had been made before calling an EGM - hence the delay! At the last AGM, the membership voted for an EGM to be held before the 2013 AGM. That way, it can be used for both the vote on the board re-composition and the vote on the election rules.
All I'm after in this email thread, though, is volunteers for tellers... please don't forget that!

The EGM will do the most urgent things so that we know where we stand at thel AGM re number of trustees and the preferred voting system. The rest of the proposals will come to the main AGM. Jon
