-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
I have been Control for a little over 10 years now (my first post as
Control was the CFN for the 2015 Committee elections), and it is time
to hand over to someone new. I would like to arrange an orderly
transition by the time that my uk.* Committee term (as an Open member)
ends in December 2027.
The role is not especially busy, although there are improvements that
could be made to the (Perl-based) tooling, and it would be good if
whoever took over had some time and inclination to re-start periodic
posting of checkgroups and so on. Also, a roll-over of the uk.*
hierarchy key is due.
I'm happy to answer questions in unnm or by email, and would like to
hear from anyone interested in taking over as Control.
Matthew
