At the Durban EC meeting we discussed the fact that we'd never had a situation like this before and would have to improvise a solution. Since there is not the time or bandwidth to hold a proper election we will have to make a selection, and here we can either flip a coin or try to make a more informed decision. We've opted for the latter, and so I would hereby like to ask Patrick and Peter to send us a couple paragraphs explaining what your vision is for the EC, how you would go about meeting the requirements of the Asian rep. role as specified in the bylaws, and what specific functional tasks (e.g. sort of work we are trying to get moving through the Teams <a href="http://www.ncuc.org/participate/working-teams/">http://www.ncuc.org/participate/working-teams/</a>) you'd be willing to help lead on. Hopefully this will give us a non-arbitrary basis for a decision. If you could get that to us by say mid-August that'd be really helpful. I hope this is ok by you….</div></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div>Patrick has decided to take his hat out of the ring, so I am pleased to announce that Peter Green (Zuan Zhang) is now a member of the EC. Welcome, Peter, we look forward to working with you!<br></div><br><div apple-content-edited="true">
