I can't speak for Seddon, but as far as I am aware he is fully intending to
stand. I have submitted my nomination too - so we have 5 publically
announced candidates.

Well, we're doing approval voting, which means even if we get seven
candidates it doesn't necessarily mean we'll get 7 Board members!

In terms of the candidates you've applied so far - the simple answer
is I know as little as you! Only the tellers know who's applied until
the names are announced next week. I only know four definites who have
said publicly they are standing (me, mpeel, Tango42 and Seddon).

I'd encourage you to stand - if you throw your hat in you can always
withdraw after the names are announced if there's a crowded field!

Has Seddon said he's standing? Last I heard he was just thinking about
it. If we only have 3 candidates, as is worryingly possible at the
moment, then there won't be an election. The AGM will just have to
pass a resolution appointing the 3 candidates and that's it. (Or, it
could not appoint us and leave the chapter in a real mess, but I would
advise against it!)
