I personally welcome your own goal of "documenting the handover". Even 
though the election was advertised in t.m.o, and an email was sent
to every m.o member (capable of vote), from my personal inquiries I think
that most members reacted to the election announcement like if a supermarket
down your street had send you an email about an election. What we need is
increased transparency over the council tasks; people realizing the need of
the council as much as the original council did.
