schema course extend: Choosing a chair

Hello again. Here's one of the initial set up tasks for the schema 
course extension community group that we can start on.

According to the home page for this community group "The group must now 
choose a chair."  There's some further information about how this 
process might work on the W3C communities site [1]

Dan Brickley has kindly nominated me as chair [2]. I am happy to chair 
this group, and act as liaison with Dan and colleagues in schema.org, 
but equally happy for the group to consider other suggestions.

So, if you would like to chair this group, please let us know. If anyone 
else comes forward we can have an election; until then I will be happy 
to act as chair.

Best regards, Phil
