[GSBN] New nomination - Min Hall

[Graeme North]

Hi Everyone

I would like to nominate my friend and colleague Min Hall to membership of the list, if someone will second her please. 
I think that she will be a great addition to our collective wisdom. She has designed some really lovely earth and straw buildings. 
Some of you will have met her at Colorado.

As she says of herself:

I am a New Zealand registered architect with over thirty years experience. During that time I have designed a number of earth and straw bale buildings and more recently(2012) completed a Master of Architecture thesis "Earth and Straw Bale: their performance and potential as building materials in New Zealand." I am a member of the Standards New Zealand Committee responsible for our Earth Building Standards and part of a working group looking at providing building consent information for straw bale construction. Most importantly I am on the organising committee for the 2016 International Straw Building Conference to be held in Methven, New Zealand in March 2016 which is going to be a ripper!

thanks

But due to poor follow through, Brad was on the 'read only' list until just now when I promoted him to contributing member status (WELCOME, Brad! from a fellow 'roo), and Kevin hasn't even joined the 'read only' list. Tom or Graham, are you willing to follow up on Kevin - invite him to the list and then let me know he's signed up.
