IRC Council Call for Nominations (2019)

[Chris Guiver]

G'day

FYI: Just followed some links on the pages, which lead to

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/IrcCouncil/MeetingAgenda

which needs update; next meeting to apply Sept 9, 2015.

Maybe the date should be removed; only mentioning 3rd Wednesday of
month, but instructions for IRC Council require IRC/Membership which
leads & requires adding yourself to outdated-page.
