Hi,

Yes, I am currently a member.  But of course if the PC is going to pick
its members, they could well chose a set of people (not sure where the 6
came from - i would have recommended 3 had i been part of a conversation
on this issue, but anyway) that did not include me.

I also think Klaus may already be on it, but am not sure.  He would need
to confirm.
