[NCUC-DISCUSS] Leadership roles in NCUC and NCSG

[Johan Helsingius]

Thanks Remmy, you bring up a valid issue, but often our problem
isn't that there are too many candidates, but rather that there
aren't enough qualified volunteers.

What we should also look at is monitoring our leadership and
representatives better, and holding them accountable. A first
step would be publishing attendance records, something we have
been discussing a lot, and that I did not want to introduce
too close to the elections as that could be seen as trying to
influence the elections.
