22 As I've stated in the forums [1], I don't think that picking somebody that was
23 not elected for the chair is a good practice. If you have found that the way
24 elections were conducted did not produce a good result, maybe you should at
25 least change your project description [2]:
26
27 "Gentoo User Representatives (userreps) form part of Gentoo User Relations
28 (userrel) and are elected each year by Gentoo users to represent them to the
29 development community."

31 Not that I have something against djay-il, it's just that I don't like the way
32 this whole situation is being handled.
