<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Well</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Here is a great question. </FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Some of those who have declined nomination have mentioned lack of time. Fair enough.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I have been asked by a potential PSC member - of whom I would be excited to see involved - what the time commitment would be.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Great question. Of which I have relatively no idea. </FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Perhaps someone that tackled the question in the past could help contribute ideas</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Perhaps some thoughts:</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">1. depends how active the PSC is</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">2. Many hands make light work</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">3. We will take what you're willing to give. Challenge by choice. </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">4. Probably more at the beginning to get processes in place.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">5. A well oiled machine will put machanics out of work.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">6. The GRASS community will appreciate (silently perhaps) your hard work</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Some guidelines</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">1. one IRC meeting a month</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">2. Casual involvement os PSC issues over the mailing list</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Maybe I have made this too light or heavy. Input would be great</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Cheers</FONT>
