Thank you, Michael.


As one of the two last (semi-)active SC members, this has been a concern
of mine, too.

I was told a couple of months ago that our current President was
planning to arrange to have elections this month, but since nothing was
said in public, the meeting did not happen.  My current expectation is
that that will all happen next month.  If not, I will be sending out a
message to all members of this mailing list to make nominations and hold
an election.
