There's no need for us to be so strict. I see no reason why the new Council can't have their full year. In fact, I'm so confident in it being all fair to give them a full year that I propose we just accept it and not bother discussing it further. ;] The previous 2 Councils had their 12 meetings, why shouldn't this one? > 2.

Let's assume that the new Council will preside from October through September. This would have elections done by September 30th, and nominations starting on August 1st, as we usually do 1 month for nominations and one month for voting. -- Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering Strategic Lead Alpha/AMD64/x86 Architecture Teams Games Developer/Foundation Trustee Gentoo Foundation
