[AnxAssoc] Nominations for Election due by 3rd January

[Silvia Pfeiffer]

Hi all,

Hope your Christmas was a good as mine! :)

I'd like to encourage people to nominate for the upcoming election to
the Annodex Association committee.

As Conrad explained earlier, we need to nominations by 3rd January.
Self-nominations are very welcome.

I was very happy with the last years committees, so I'd like to
encourage everyone on the old committees to stand again.

But I'd also like to encourage new people who think they can make a
difference to stand for committee membership.

I have cut and pasted Conrad's email below with more details on how
nominations work.

Looking forward to your nominations!

Cheers,
Silvia.
