[Cz-editcouncil] Call for the Nomination of the Chair!

[Dr.Supten Sarbadhikari]

Dear All,
I am extending the call for Nominations for the Chair of the CZ EC for
another 24 hours and it will be closed at *Thursday March 05, 2009 04:30
hrs. UTC*.
One of the nominees is yet to confirm or regret his nomination.
Hopefully today some of the EC members will be active at the Write-a-thon
and spare some moment for the EC activity also.
The Elections for the Editorial Council will commence very soon.
With warmest regards
Supten
