> We now have 22 high level candidates [0] but only 20 open slots, a

> As per our "New Membership Process" [1] we can add between 10% and one

>
> Therefore I defer the start of the election process for two days in
> the hope that the board agrees with my proposal and we do not need to
> have Charter Member elections at all.
