Agreed. I'd almost never put a candidate without a manifesto above |
| 10 |
reopen-nominations, but I don't see the need for a rule here - |
| 11 |
especially since we do have the reopen system. |

To avoid short replies to 5 different emails, regarding the issue of |
| 14 |
actions speak louder than words, I wholeheartedly agree. However, I |
| 15 |
still find manifestos useful, because they show that a candidate |
| 16 |
actually has given some thought to the role and what they plan to do. |
| 17 |
Not finding the time to write anything at all to me speaks about the |
| 18 |
level of interest or time available to dedicate to the role. |
