Guys, I'm back on my own PC, now having replaced the power supply. I hold more to Gordon's comments; the law may have changed, and I would not have to disclose my address, but if serving in a board capacity I can see no circumstance where I'd withhold such information from a WMUK member. The board *serves* the members, and, to be honest, even if the registration requirements no longer require these details be divulged, I would argue that being prepared to give personal contact details to a member being a matter of course as far as the duties go. Unfortunately, with my PC outage (PSU died), I've no idea if I got registered as a candidate in time. I'm trying to look into that right now; I'm wanting to stand on a basis that WMUK could support my pet project (Wikinews) and improve things for itself. As some on-list may know, I had to resign from the WMF Communications Committee for a 'technical' conflict of interest (I will be blunt, speak my mind, &c where I see it as appropriate, WMF becoming ultra-conservative on such. However, in service on a Chapter board I see no serious issues, and an opportunity to run a recruitment drive in Scotland.) If I've - through my semi-desperate email registered as a candidate, I'm open to any queries on how I'd like to see WMUK grow. I'm very ambitious about getting WMUK seen as serious and respectable, I do want to push Wikinews issues, but I only want to do so where I can see a short-to-medium term benefit to WMUK. So, if I'm up as a candidate, spam me with questions! -- Brian McNeil <brian.mcn...@wikinewsie.org> Wikinewsie.org
