This current committee member will not be standing.  This in no way
suggests that I don't like AUUG.  It is simply the case that after four
years on the committee (including the first three as Treasurer, the
years AUUG's finances went way up), concurrent with serving on
committees of other organisations with an even greater workload, I feel
it is time for a break, and for someone else to have a go.

While I don't support campaigning in aus.auug, I advise that I will be
standing for a position, non-Committee, which means a Returning Officer
position.  Which means that in 1993, nominations would close on the due
date, with proper notice having been given.

I strongly encourage anyone who is interested in seeing AUUG continue
to grow (in whatever direction - c'mon everyone, put your money where
your mouth is) to stand for office.  It is rewarding, there are nice
business cards, and you get to go to Sydney every few months (wow!!).

The committee meetings used to alternate between Melbourne and Sydney,
but the last two years have seen very little Melbourne representation -
me!  So, how about it Melbournians?  Victorians generally?  Get in
there and break this NSW dominance :-)

I'd also encourage people from the other states to run - non-NSW/Vic
representation has always been minimal.
