This page is to collect all questions for board candidates, who are elected in June. Anyone can edit this page or post suggested questions, with the understanding that each candidate will pick the questions that best reflect their intentions for the board.
Candidates are strongly encouraged to post their answers as new threads at http://talk.makeict.org by 1 week before the annual meeting.
Candidates will also be given 2-3 minutes each to address the attendees at our annual meeting.
