Indeed, because I won't deny that Stefano has been a very good DPL. But that doesn't mean there aren't things I think could be done differently. For instance, I think Stefano is focusing a bit too much on procedural things, rather than on the fact that we're a bunch of people. > So, the questions are: > * Why do you think you need to be elected as a DPL to do what you propose? While I do definitely want to do some things similar to the way Stefano's been doing them (mostly in the area of communication), there are some things I would like to see the DPL do differently. I can't very well do DPL stuff if I'm not the DPL (or, at least, not make sure things happen differently -- I /could/ help out Stefano, should he get elected, though I'm not sure I would, because I don't think I can make a difference as a 'helper'). > * If not elected, would you pursue your goals anyway? Probably not, because it would be difficult to do that. > * If zack was re-elected, would you follow his initiative to share DPL > activities with others? As above, I don't think I can make much of a difference as a DPL helper. As the DPL, I would be able to make my own choices and decisions. As a DPL's helper, I would need to implement someone else's choices, which is a significant difference. -- The volume of a pizza of thickness a and radius z can be described by the following formula: pi zz a -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-vote-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
