Gentoo Council 2009/2010 - Nominations are now open


Hello fellow developers and users.

Nominations for the Gentoo Council 2009/2010 are now open for the next
two weeks (until 23:59 UTC, 14/06/2009).

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 1st 00H00 UTC to June 14th 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 16th 00H00 UTC to June 30th 23H59 UTC
      (there is one day of break between nominations and voting so the
infra team has time to set up everything)
    * Only Gentoo developers may vote
    * Gentoo uses the Condorcet method of voting

The page listing all nominations is here:
http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/elections/council-200906-nominees.xml

If you don't know what the Gentoo Council is, you can read about it here:

I would like to kick-start the nominations by nominating Mart Raudsepp
(leio), Petteri Räty (betelgeuse), and Luca Barbato (lu_zero) [all of
them are CCed]

Re: Gentoo Council 2009/2010 - Nominations are now open

People I nominate:

* leio / mraudsepp, because he's done a really good job protecting the 
distro's interests

* Cardoe, because he is working goal-oriented and doesn't care about the
wargharbling and instead goes for restults

* lu_zero, because he's done a good job and brings in his own ideas without
going religious on people with different opinions

* dertobi123, because he's done a good job and keeps organizing the Gentoo
presence on german open source events

* ulm, because he's a good fellow that deserves to show what he can do on the
council after being pulled in for the rest of the term to replace dberkholz

* solar, because he knows how things work behind the scenes (infra, portage)
and doesn't tolerate infinite discussions

* grobian, because he's shown leadership and dedication with Prefix and the
other things he got involved with

* quantumsummers, because he has shown dedication and reliability

* scarabeus, because he knows what he wants and promised to beat me up if I
didn't nominate him

* tove, because he has done an awesome job keeping perl alive and has shown
consistent sane opinions in technical discussions

Monthly Gentoo Council Reminder for June

This is your monthly friendly reminder !  Same bat time (typically
the 2nd Thursday at 2000 UTC / 1600 EST), same bat channel
(#gentoo-council  <at>  irc.freenode.net) !

If you have something you'd wish for us to chat about, maybe even
vote on, let us know !  Simply reply to this e-mail for the whole
Gentoo dev list to see.

Keep in mind that every GLEP *re*submission to the council for review
must first be sent to the gentoo-dev mailing list 7 days (minimum)
before being submitted as an agenda item which itself occurs 7 days
before the meeting.  Simply put, the gentoo-dev mailing list must be
notified at least 14 days before the meeting itself.

i must have missed the last point in the previous discussions. could 
someone perhaps point me to a post explaining the "high price" part? or 
just repeat it here....

thanks
kind regards
