I'll stand for the general committee again. Don't know why last time we elected only 3 general committee members, when there were more willing. I took a look at the charter, and it doesn't seem to specify the number of general committee members we can have. I think including the officers a general committee of 5-6 would be fine, and help when planning things like software freedom day. Or create a sub-committee just for sfd maybe.
*Rule 7* The officers of the society shall consist of a president, vice-president, secretary, and treasurer. The committee of the society shall include the above named officers, as well as 3 (three) extra members. This was dropped from the 5 that were originally required due to difficulties in getting quorum with 9 committee members.
