I hadn't given it much thought, but it seems like an interesting position, so I will accept the nomination.

Lyle will probably be here soon, but nominations are now closed, as far as I can tell.
Maxim Doroshenko, Felix Dumont (has accepted nomination), Frank Lee and Patrick MacDonald were nominated.
I'll leave it to Lyle as to how to proceed from here.
Since it is now past 1600 ET I declare nominations closed. The TD List shows Doroshenko's membership as having expired 1 May 2015 so he would be ineligible for nomination unless we can get a confirmation from the Office that he renewed his membership before the close of nominations. This leaves us with the following nominations:
Felix Dumont
Paul Leblanc
Frank Lee
Patrick McDonald
With this in mind I close this thread and refer members to thread 7.3 "The Voting Booth" Kalev Pugi Fund Committee. Members should note that there are 3 positions available and that they may vote for up to 3 candidates. Anyone selecting more will have their vote disqualified - however you may vote for as many as you like up to 3.
