Hi

[sorry for top posting]

I'm not a core contributor, maybe I don't deserve to be. But I think I should be, I haven't submitted any actual code, probably never will, but I do my part in evangalism and helping newbies and advanced users with their problems accross all communities both with my blog and my activities on #opensolaris and #solaris as well as posting to numerous email lists and filing many bug reports. Just thought I would bring it to your attention.

James Dickens' Blog http://uadmin.blogspot.com/ is a valuable newsticker.
Plus it regulary gets referenced to and/or quoted by various news sites, including ElReg. It therefore brings public interest, hence market value and CASH to OpenSolaris.org.
Why should JamesD not be considered a core contributor?
And - if not - at least have a right to vote?

p.s. The whole thing really begins to disappoint me.
Maybe I'm not the only one.
And the silence currently smells deadly.

    Nominations for the forthcoming election to the OpenSolaris
Governing Board close at the end of today, Monday March 5th, Pacific Time. You can see the status of the election at http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/cab/OGB_Election_Status/
    where you will note that a number of candidates still await
    seconds or acceptance of their nomination. The page is updated
    during Al Hopper's waking hours, since he is using a file upload
    rather than collaborative wiki editing due to the complexity of
    the table, so it may lag slightly.

IF YOU EXPECT TO BE A CANDIDATE, PLEASE CHECK THIS PAGE!
    The following candidates do not appear to have not been seconded
    by a Core Contributor:

    Dennis Clarke
    Ian Collins
    Jens Elkner
    Eric Enright
    Mike Gerdts
    Rainer Heilke
    John J. McLaughlin
    Jeremy Teo

    If you wish to second these nominations, please write to
    [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
    straight away.

    None of these candidates appear to have accepted their nomination.
    In addition, neither have:

    Alan Coopersmith
    Casper Dik
    Stephen Hahn
    Roland Mainz
    Joerg Schilling

    Candidates who wish to accept their nomination should write to
    [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
    immediately with a message that includes the phrase "I accept" in
    a suitable context.
    Candidates who wish to decline their nomination may write to
    [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
    with a message that includes the phrase "I decline" in a suitable
    context.


    Right now there are twelve candidates who will be in the ballot.
    Those candidates should prepare a short bio somewhere on the web,
    plus a statement of their reasons for wanting to be elected, and
    send the URL of each statement to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
    <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

    Regards

    Simon
