Hi, After consideration and some convincing (thanks!), I've decided to throw also my hat into the ring as a candidate to be the next chairman of the IPMC.
I believe in that role I could be more effective in focusing more of our collective attention at where I think it would do most good - at the actual podlings we're here to help. That said, the current incubation process clearly has problems and I very much support efforts to improve the way we work (even if the result is to replace the Incubator with something better). However, I'd like to leave the leadership on these efforts to others and, as mentioned elsewhere, rather try to act as a balancing force that helps achieve consensus where possible. Should I be elected, I'd resign as the chairman of the Jackrabbit PMC. In fact I think it's in any case high time for Jackrabbit to be rotating that role. Finally, if elected (and assuming the IPMC still exists), I'd serve for at most two years before calling for a re-election, or possibly much less if I don't find enough free cycles to perform the duty as well as it should.
