24 'Gratz to all! Definitely an interesting voting system used. Technical jargon
25 aside, it seems to be a mechanism that uses voting to "sort" candidates, then
26 whittles down the sort list using some math-matrix-like formula (it's 1am, I am
27 probably getting this so wrong).

30 And now some questions/statements:
31
32 1) Who manages access to #gentoo-trustees?
33
34 2) Where do we park the corporate leer jets and fleet of
35 campaign buses? #gentoo-hangar?
36
37 3) Need a job pool to hire some sexy-looking^H^Hhard-working
38 interns from. Recommendations? Already tried
39 #gentoo-interns, but all I wound up with was a yard gnome
40 in a pink tutu and a spork. They haven't been too helpful.
41
42 4) Contrary to my campaign promises and due to unforeseen budget
43 cuts, I will not be able to whiten everyone's teeth up to
44 25% better than before. I can, however, recommend a great
45 dentist: Dr. Lottz O. Payne.
46
47 5) Also due to budget cuts, the light at the end of the tunnel
48 has been shutdown until further notice.

51 Looking forward to an interesting time.
