Just to play devils advocate for a moment (sorry Spear), Craig was the one who announced he was interested in forming this new organization. He made the posts inviting people to join, he set up the forum and a lot of the early buzz was there because he is well respected in our community.
For those reasons alone I expected he WOULD take a leadership role in at least getting the thing off the ground and fully running. We have not elected an Executive committee, so until that happens we do need an “Organizer” to keep things moving along in an orderly fashion.
Since he never formally declined that role, and since he started the new group I think most of us ASSUMED he was going to be at the helm until the ship was afloat and running under its own steam.
