New Tech Council Chair needed	Mike Gorrell	The TC should elect a new Chair. No volunteers... Mark V nominates Tod - Tod can't take it on right now due to many capacity factors. Jeremy nominated Mark V - but Mark can't take that on either - workload. Jeremy can't take it on either. Mike suggests an alternating Chair: Each member assumes running the meeting once every 9 weeks. No opposition! This will be our plan. Jeremy will run next week's meeting. Who will attend ExecPC and/or attend PC or Present to PC once per month? Tod volunteers to be the liaison to the PC April 7 - Jeremy April 14 - April 21 - April 28 - May 5 - May 12 - May 19 - May 26 - Mark V
