I should say I'm a bit nervous with someone who hasn't been an Officer
before starting with rulekeepor.  It's an unholy blend of a lot of work, 
in big bursts, with timeliness being a big issue, and it requires some 
pretty finicky understanding of the rules (e.g. it's the primary person
responsible for whether proposal amendments work, requiring knowledge of 
standards for clarity, AI/power, etc.)  I think the position is
historically the biggest source of officer burn-out even among 
experienced players.  (I think almost *all* rulekeepor changeovers have
happened when the rulekeepor just gave up on it for a month or more).

I'm not saying "100% don't", but forewarned is forearmed...
