I think I would really prefer we send Neal. I don't feel comfortable
with someone representing the group who would put us in the position to
potentially have to deregister them when we have clear precedent from
previous years that the ambiguous deadline does allow people to register
later. (It would also be very strange if they did decide to enforce it
more strictly this year, as it would also impact quite a few other
groups for no good reason.) This on top of your tendency to start
things, or say you will do things, and then fail to follow through on
them, which was why I changed my mind about being considered myself,
just seems like too much too me.
Bear in mind Neal makes a lot of sense as a representative to send
regardless - even if it hadn't been awhile since we've sent him, he's
been a consistently active fixture in our local community with a long
history of organising and assisting with events even before the group
was formally created, and has been one of the main people not just
encouraging others, but also doing things himself, writing the actual
body for our reports, setting things up, following through to the end.

I am ok with someone more deserving going. Let me know when and how to
deregister, once they have registered.

Thank you, Abhay, for entering your candidate info, and for
registering, in case the deadline was today.
Sorry I wasn't back at my email until just now.
I still don't know what the deadline is. I and others have asked
Cornelius, but haven't heard back.
I visited the registration page just now, and it is still
functioning, so either the
deadline is tomorrow, or they're accepting late registrations, or
they're misleading us....
I'm fine with either Abhay or Isarra representing us. And I still
have interest in going
myself, but I can defer to folks who are more engaged....
Perhaps we can wait to hear more about the deadline, and whether
anyone else is out-of-the-loop
but interested.
