Go ahead and write something up and we'll get it run through PR |
12 |
tomorrow. We'll want something on the announce lists, front page, |
13 |
forums, etc. to point to the thread here. |

One thing that I think most people forget is that anybody can nominate |
16 |
someone. You don't need to be a developer. I do recommend that we |
17 |
setup a page under the Foundation web space for the election *prior* to |
18 |
the announcements being sent out just so we can link to it and people |
19 |
can see it get updated as things happen. I think that it'll give people |
20 |
some confidence in the process if they can see it happening in front of |
21 |
them. |

We should also be explicit about what requirements there are for being |
24 |
eligible to be a trustee, and possibly provide that list if it requires |
25 |
someone having been a developer for some period of time. |
