There was a recent announcement on the APNIC sig-policy mailing list seeking candidates for this role. You can see the announcement at: http://mailman.apnic.net/mailing-lists/sig-policy/archive/2009/08/msg00005.h... I have submitted a response to this and I'd like to ask for your support if we get to the point where there is an election process. If I get the nod I will buy beer but you'll need to be in Beijing for the APNIC meeting. I'd also encourage you to consider the proposals that are being discussed on the sig-policy list and which will be on the agenda at the Beijing meeting. A number of these could have an impact on operations over the next year or so. See http://www.apnic.net/community/policy/proposals
