In 2012 the cycle commenced 15 October and concluded 30 November, but last year the scheduling of the annual meeting Buenos Aires made us push it back to 6 November - 17 December, with results announced the 18th.  This year’s annual in LA was also a bit ill-timed in terms of trying to do an October boot-up, hence we need to scurry a bit now.

We really should allow a week before the nomination start.

I propose to deal with those on the e-team list, since Maryam and other folks most likely to be involved in helping are subscribed there.  Anyone who’s not subscribed and would like to pitch in is heartily encouraged to join http://lists.ncuc.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/e-team <http://lists.ncuc.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/e-team>.
