I'm thinking about it more and thinking other than for a few housekeeping ideas, why do we need a PO? It seems like there will not be a lot of voting going on until much later in the convention.
I wish to formally nominate Verily for the position at this time
I am not so concerned with voting. Rather, I think it is important that the Convention tackle the issues systematically. Smid's proposal (and there are probably others out there as well) is all well and good for a starting point, but multiple proposals means a massive synthesis project which would take longer and ultimately come out messier than building a Constitution from the ground up. Possibly with much of the heavy lifting coming from proposals like Smid's.
Anyway, I'm flattered that you all support me for PO. Don't feel obliged to do so just because I'm suggesting it...
