The GNOME Foundation Membership & Elections Committee is pleased to announce the final list of candidates running for the 2002 elections. You will find the list of candidates, the invalid nominations and the calendar of the elections below. The Committee is still receiving applications for GNOME Foundation membership, probably because the applicants wants to vote for the elections. These applications will be processed, but we would like to recall that these applicants, if their application is approved, won't be able to vote for the elections because they applied after November 1st. We would also like to recall that people who have applied for membership before November 1st but have not seen their application approved/rejected will be able to vote (if approved). We are processing their applications. Official list of candidates --------------------------- 1. Martin Sevior 2. Richard Stallman 3. Miguel de Icaza 4. Bill Haneman 5. Mike Newman 6. Glynn Foster 7.
