Re: [Gmod-tripal] nominations for steering committee by march 26th

[Meg S. <me...@gm...>]

With no objections, the proposed Tripal governance passed. Congrats to our
community!

*Only two days left for nominations for INTERNAL Tripal steering committee
members*. Please see the governance details for the full definition (
https://tripal.readthedocs.io/en/latest/contributing/governance.html#tripal-steering-committee-tsc),
but basically, an individual who is involved in the Tripal community and
can provide leadership and expertise in steering the Tripal project.
Self-nominations welcome. *Please email Ethy at **ekc...@ia...
<ekc...@ia...> with your nominations by tomorrow, March 26th.*
(Additional details below if you are interested).

-The Interim Tripal Steering Committee (Ethy, Meg, Lacey)
