fully agree with this. this is how i've voted in the past (and to an extent, this time as well.). that said, i think it's good to get to know the candidates a bit more beyond the initial, often heavily vetted, self-nominations. i don't know if this will change anything but hopefully it stops the downward trend we have for TC election turnout. cheers, -- gord ps. i apologise to the people running who i do know for not telling them ahead of time i was going to ask random questions. equal playing field :P __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
