[NCUC-DISCUSS] REMINDER-NCUC 2026 Election Timeline Information

Tue May 12 20:38:00 CEST 2026

Hi Emmanuel,

To assist with this matter, since we were also confused by it within the
NCUC EC some time ago, I believe he is not using your name - it is his
actual name, and, as far as I remember, he has a record of activities in
other IG fields. It is just a (really big) coincidence.

Cordially,
