Hi Benson, Thank you for the kind nomination. I'm not sure I have the time or energy for these duties anymore, plus my goal would still be to retire the Incubator :) and I think the folks around here actually want to see it continue on. If it does continue you, and you're at the helm, I am

I nominate Chris Mattmann. He's been a positive presence in the incubator for years. It seems to me that the IPMC char has to both guide the work of the group and also channel the Foundation's policies and the board's wants and needs, and he is well-position to do all these things. On Wed, Oct 3,
