Just an update on this with actual location information.  The election
will be held at Gonpachi in Ginza:

http://www.gonpachi.jp/en/g_zone/home/location

We'll start the proceedings at 21:00 or shortly afterwards.  Any JLS or
KS attendee is welcome to turn up and vote (small quantities of food and
beverage will be provided as an incentive).  Nominations will be
accepted at the location until shortly after 21:00.
