[plug] Call for Nominations for PLUG Committee 2012

[Tim White]

Hi Peter (and PLUG).

Another year passes, and somehow I'm still an OCM. Even though I'm 
fairly permanently located in QLD now, I'm still happy to continue 
participating with PLUG in both a technical position (server/list 
administration) as well as a member who enjoys being able to see the 
talks live (and recorded if the time difference is too great). I am 
happy to serve in the technical role without being a member of the 
committee, as being in QLD I can't assist the committee as much as I 
would like to being always a "virtual person" instead of a flesh and 
blood person on the ground.

Having said that, I'm more than happy to nominate for the position of 
OCM again. I hope however, that some of the newer members of PLUG 
(especially with the growth we have seen this year) will consider the 
rewarding position of being an OCM and setup up to the plate!

So come on pluggers, please step up and get active! This year has been 
one of amazing growth under the strong direction of James and the 
committee. Jump on board and help PLUG grow more, and continue to 
provide better and better services to it's members!

Tim
