Hello fellow developers and users. Nominations for the Gentoo Council 2010/2011 are now open for the next two weeks (until 23:59 UTC, 18/06/2010).
All nominations must be sent to the gentoo-dev mailing list. If you were nominated and want to run, you have to accept your nomination on the same mailing list. Here are the rules: * Council elections generally happen once a year * The council is composed of seven elected members * Nominations are allowed from June 5th 00H00 UTC to June 18th 23H59 UTC * Only Gentoo developers may be nominated * Anyone can nominate (nominating yourself is OK) * Nominees must accept their nomination before voting begins * Voting is opened from June 20th 00H00 UTC to July 03rd 23H59 UTC (there is a one day break between nominations and voting so the infra team has time to set up everything) * Only Gentoo developers that have joined the project before nomination starts may vote * Gentoo uses the Condorcet method of voting The page listing all nominations is here: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/elections/council/2010/council-201006-nominees.xml If you don't know what the Gentoo Council is, you can read about it here: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/council/ If you want to ask a question or share your thoughts, contact any of the election officials: Roy Bamford (neddyseagoon) Ulrich Müller (ulm) Torsten Veller (tove) Robin H.
