Oh ok one person for each position unless wobo is wrong.

I agree it's good to have a leader and a deputy leader to help each 
other, but having two council representatives could be quite good to 
have at times as well really.

In fact I was thinking about it earlier how at least in my experience 
group things tend to have or may have two people for non leading positions.

Also at times a council representative can't easily attend a council 
meeting, because of for example the time they are at in their time zone, 
or can't attend it at all, because of being busy with something else. In 
these kind of situations having two council representatives for a team 
could be very useful. Even if the other representative is just a 
substitute for when the main representative is not at the meeting. Or 
even if the main representative does most of the representing in a 
council meeting with the other as well.

As for the council mailing list I assume both representatives should be 
sending emails to it if their are two.

Anyway it seems we will be voting for only one council representative 
and so in that case my vote is for Trish or myself.
