I also understood we were nominating other people, not ourselves and was 
promoting this in the ES community asking them to join and nominate :/
IMO self nomination is weird ?because you need to ask someone to support your 
nomination. Nominating someone else is easier, we just need to ask the person 
if he/she wants to be nominated.
About the chosen tool to hanlde this: ot os difficult to work with, from the 
user and admin perspective. IMO the same can be done just with google forms, 
that is free and widely used, and paypal directly.

- and join up now.Hi Erik,Happy New Year.I agree the list of current nominees 
and members should be made moreobvious- @Sam - is this possible?I have no idea 
what is meant by 'include name in list of eventregistrants'. There is certainly 
no other  'secret' list of nomineesand current Board members are not 
automatically nominated.You are correct that self-nomination is expected. I am 
not sure thatit makes sense to nominate someone else since it would really 
requirethat person's agreement in any case. They would need to be 
registeredmembers and would need to nominate themselves, provide a bio etc.The 
nomination does need support from an existing Board member butthis is purely to 
prevent vexatious or spurious nominations. I wouldcertainly not expect a 
nomination to be rejected other than in highlyextreme circumstances, and I 
would personally be happy to supportanyone from the 'known' openEHR community, 
should they wish it.I am not aware of any Industry group nominations so far but 
understandthat these are imminent.I agree too that we should issue regular 
updates over the next weeks,along with lists of current nominations - we need 
more!Regards,IanDr Ian McNicolloffice +44 (0)1536 414 994fax +44 (0)1536
