Dear Gentoo Community, |

Nominations for the Gentoo Council 2015 / 2016 election have now started |
| 4 |
at 00:00 UTC 2015/06/13 (Saturday) and will remain open for the next two |
| 5 |
weeks until 23:59 UTC, 2015/06/26 (Friday). |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
All nominations must be sent to the gentoo-project mailing list. If you |
| 8 |
were nominated and want to run, you have to accept your nomination on |
| 9 |
the same mailing list. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
Here are the rules: |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
* Council elections generally happen once a year |
| 14 |
* The council is composed of seven elected members |
| 15 |

| 16 |
23H59 UTC |
| 17 |
* Only Gentoo developers may be nominated |
| 18 |
* Anyone can nominate (nominating yourself is OK) |

* Nominees must accept their nomination before voting begins |
| 20 |
* Voting is opened from June 28th 00H00 UTC to July 11th 23H59 UTC |
| 21 |
(there is one day of break between nominations and voting so the |
| 22 |
infra team has time to set up everything) |
| 23 |
* Only Gentoo developers may vote |
| 24 |
* The list of Gentoo Developers is based on active membership |
| 25 |
by June 12th, 2013 (the day before the election was opened) |
