Even more minor quibble:  Coppercon officials are usually elected 2.25
years out.  We went to 1.75 for Copper 19 so we would know whether we
were going to get the NASFiC before people decided whether to run.  As
there's an active Westercon 53 (2000) bid being run out of Phoenix,
I'm going to propose that the elections for Copper 20 be similarly
pushed back to December.

Speaking for myself

(Yes, if you want to get really technical, the numbers should be more
like 2.17 years and 1.71 years.)
