[AusNOG] APNIC Policy SIG Co-Chair

[David Hughes]

Cheeky?  What more would we expect from our kiwi friends ;-)

Guys, just some background on this.  Andy has been a great supporter  
of AusNOG and what we do over the other side of the ditch.  He has  
helped gather NZ support for both me and James when we have run for  
election to the APNIC EC.  For those of you that don't know Andy from  
his time in Aus working for AARNet (many moons ago) well, you should.   
He's a great bloke.

I encourage you all to support Andy for his tilt at this position.   
The Policy SIG has some serious work to do and it'd be great to have  
someone from our neck of the woods as chair.
