Formalities checked...

If anyone is interested the two questions I asked ian were:

- my company is considering joining w3c (he knows as he has been helping
with this), what will happen since my acct sort of resets and I have to
rejoin the group as rep and he assured me that we can deal with that since
the group is in charge of chairmanship selection.

- can community groups have co-chairs?  I'm not suggesting that we need on
now since I agree with Francois comment above but if thing go the way we
hope we'd probably like to consider that.  The answer, again, is yes we
can.

So yes, I would be honored to be nominated.
