Following a few enquiries I thought I'd copy the relevant information about the nomination process from our website: Nominations should be sent to [log in to unmask] by midday on 18 October 2016. Please include your contact details, an indication of which role(s) you’re interested in, and a brief biography (for previous examples, check out the current Committee bios <http://museumscomputergroup.org.uk/about/mcg-committee/>). Self-nominations are welcome. We'll also be looking for people to help run local meetups as well as an organisational host for next year's Museums+Tech conference (e.g. a central London venue with capacity for 200-250 people), so there are lots of ways to get involved in our work with the digital heritage sector!
