I'm of two minds about this.
On the one hand, IWS, I respect you, what you've done, and how much you have put into the game as a member of the CPM0. You've gone above and beyond, and that is something great. And in this sense, I believe you would be a huge asset to the next CPM1.
On the flip side, however, this is the first elected CPM. Bringing some of the reputation from CPM0 to CPM1 is a two-edged sword. Many in the community feel that the CPM0 betrayed the community with the Legion thing, and still uphold their... opinions. They are wrong, and calling for you all to have quit, or otherwise made a stand by breaking NDA is even worse, but many in the community feel this way, and I wouldn't like 'that' part of the CPM0's reputation tainting the CPM1.
Sometimes, a clean break is what is needed to restore faith in an elected body.

Now this here is a compelling argument against my run that fits the argument proper. In direct reply to the issue. I feel that what actions the CPM has done in light of Legion was most appropriate and if CPM 1 cannot be held to a similar standard of holding on tightly to the NDA then the establishment cannot be trusted with future work on any scale. The whole CPM threatening to break NDA as a group and Mass Resigns are final doomsday options; an option best used on something far far far more serious than Legion's announcement. While I don't know what sort of situation could possibly happen to resort to such; it would be something that if CCP goes through with it, might as well not elect another council as such will no longer be necessary type of deals. Legion as we all now know is not one of those situations.
Just as a note: Saber. I don't hold it against you, or any of the CPM0 members. I know how much effort you guys have put into the game, and how much you guys have gone above and beyond in what you were originally slated to do. Me saying that it might be best if you didn't come along to CPM1 is in no way personal. I'm just trying to reflect possible community views.

Very unfairly judging any of the CPM0 on what has transpired.
I've stated my opinions on whether IWS should run again or not above, but taking pot shots at them for something they may never have had a hand in in the first place, and something they have been vocal about not endorsing in some cases, I think you need to step back, take a look at what you KNOW, and not what you CHOOSE TO BELIEVE before you go slandering people's name, and reputations.
