To: debian-devel-announce@lists.debian.org Subject: Debian Project Leader Elections From: Debian Project Secretary Date: Wed, 06 Feb 2002 11:34:31 -0600 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, According to the constitution (5.2. Appointment), project leader elections should begin "nine weeks before the leadership post becomes vacant, or (if it is too late already) immediately." Last year, pre-ballots were issued on 7 Mar 2001, with the real ballot going out on march the 8th. The end of the voting period was on the 28 of March, 2001; and The results were announced on March 39. This means that today (the time of writing it is Wed Feb 6 17:26:17 UTC 2002), we are roughly two weeks short of the lead time required. Prospective leaders should be familiar with the constitution, but, just to review: there's a three week period when interested developers nominate themselves, followed by a three week period with no nominations [intended for campaigning], followed by three weeks for the election itself. Please make sure that nominations are sent to (or cc:'d to) debian-vote, and are cryptographically signed. Thanks, manoj Who needs to go and test out the voting machinery to ensure it all works - -- You have not converted a man because you have silenced him.
