I think we're going to have to figure out some kind of Robert's Rules of
Order for an email list. That, of course, will mean having a
chairperson.... which means an election of some kind.

I nominate Shawn Wilden to be our acting Chairperson and move that we
accept him by acclimation.

The biggest problem we're going to have is that everyone joined the grid to
have a practical tool, none of us joined to enter into a governing body.
Unfortunately, we're going to have to have one and we're going to have to
be one.
