Norbert:
The regional positions are selected by some process independent of 
NCUC; we have nothing to do with it. So I am not sure whether 
they are currently up for nomination or not. I suspect not, I
think we are a bit late ;-)

Are also the regional members of the PIR Council positions up for
nominations, or only the NCUC PIR AC position?
