The following names have been proposed for nomination to the six open positions of the TCPG Steering Committee:

Chairperson
- Shveta Mehtani

Administrative Assistant
- Tanith Korravai

Supporting Members
- Gary Berosik
- David Levitt
- Maichue Thao
- Gerry Werth

If anyone else wishes to nominate, or be nominated, for the fourth Supporting Member position, please let us know via this e-group as soon as possible.

As this stands, no positions have alternate nominees, so the voting at next month's TCPG meeting will be straightforward. I propose the following rough agenda (~1 hour total):

• Convene
• Introduce the new TCPG Steering Committee nominees (~10 minutes)
• Vote (by hand count of attendees, to keep this simple, ~5 minutes)
• Outgoing retrospective discussion (Gary Berosik, facilitator, ~15 minutes)
• Incoming "future directions" discussion (Shveta & Tanith, facilitators, ~15 minutes)
• Discussion and voting for upcoming TCPG meeting arrangements, schedules and topics (Shveta, Tanith, Gary, facilitators, ~ 15 minutes)
• Adjourn

I would like to personally THANK all of the TCPG members, and the TCPG Steering Committee members past and future, for their help, good ideas and sharing spirits (Arun Batchu, Wolf Ketter and Chris Juettner in particular).

It's now our challenge as a group to make the TCPG an even more powerful learning and sharing experience than it has been in the past.

Plan on joining us at the next TCPG meeting with your comments, ideas and suggestions to help make the meetings and events interesting and valuable for you and all the TCPG members (at last count, ~90!).
