[mat-wg] MAT WG chair selection

I believe we’re ready to call consensus on this question.

We have support for appointing Massimo Candela, Stephen Strowes, and Nina Bargisen as chairs of MAT WG. Congratulations to the new chairs!

I note that our process of record doesn’t say anything about *when* this change will be effective, so the incoming, continuing, and outgoing chairs will meet to manage logistics (and finish putting together the program for our meeting in Berlin next month). 

Many thanks, cheers,

Brian
