Re: [registrars] Important Update

I would like to volunteer for the membership Task Force. Moreover, Mike, I
would be willing to ultimately relieve you of leading in that effort with a
period of transition. You have given so much of yourself, and I think it's
time others in our group step up and take some responsibility.

Besides, it would be a wonderful way to demonstrate the efficacy of my
"Southern folksy charm" which some of you mistook for "redneck aggression"
out in LA. :-)

Wishing all a Good New Year...
