Pindar,

Thanks for your note.

Lets get these 2 questions answered here.

1) We are electronically voting on officvers right now. We hope to
have an announcement of officers by the end of this week. I have indicated
to the other cxommittee members that I am  not available to  continuine
for another term in the capacity as Chair of this committee.

2) David is Acting Director-General at present. We will of course
be talking with hom over a continuing role in this near future.

I'd be happy to answer any other questions, but perhaps the cc list
should be trimmed down just a little to the apnic-talk list as I suspect
we are overstepping the mark of cross posting!

Thanks,

  Geoff Huston
  Executive Committee Member
