That's fine, but there was absolutely NO communication of this. There
wasn't even communication that the meeting was going to happen. Since
this was a mistake, I don't think it is reasonable to blindly follow
the policy to the letter. We made a mistake, and we should correct it.

Well, I for one am not happy with how things have been run this year.
I would have taken the opportunity to question what changes will be
made by the people who are going to be running the organization. If I
was unhappy with those answers, then I would nominate myself.

But because of the characteristically bad communication this year I
missed the opportunity.

So there is no more avenue for discussion and nomination? Your
original email suggested that the nominations had closed.
