Thanks Abbas, for the timely update, that only happens when working
with able and well versed person like you ,am using my kidogo time to
scrutinize the regulations i also urge other members to spare sometime
n do the same ,just realized that issue of posting /sending candidates
bios to the Wiki is actually entrenched in our by laws,to echo Grace's
opinion it will be in order for us to  on work setting out a specific
date for election and communicating the same ,Meanwhile the 11th
meeting will be an important platform for you to elaborate on the
election process in accordance with the by laws ,elect the moderators
and set the stage for the election,thats my opinion.
