Please remember the original date was 16 August, so there might be candidates out there waiting (just like Dennis was not nominated the first day). In case the PMC decides to close for more candidates, I suggest a 72 hour (+weekend if needed) lazy consensus, and then I can make the needed resolution to board, we might even make it to the August board meeting. rgds jan i. > > --Rich > > > > >> Roberto >> >> 2015-08-03 2:07 GMT+02:00 Dennis E.
