Thanks Jason,
Yes, please e-mail me if you'd like to get involved, the SC meets once a
month via teleconference and we're looking to include more people.  Please
also mail me if you are an existing chair in need of help, or wanting to
step down from your responsibilities and try another role on the SC, or take
a break.
cheers,
John
