Need to address better when a meeting is considered official (right now |
| 7 |
it's not addressed at all, so anything is better), for the rest is fine |
| 8 |
as it is. |

Council handles appeals, there's no conflict of interests: who gets |
| 14 |
voted in is already known to not be entirely impartial and/or being in |
| 15 |
charge of other decsion-making teams. |

Staying independent one of the other, with no hierarchical relationship |
| 24 |
one way or the other. |

If you know me you know what I do, if you don't, I suggest just looking |
| 30 |
at my blog (http://blog.flameeyes.eu/) there it's all you have to know, |
| 31 |
and probably something you don't care about. |

Last year? Being a council member already, I'd say. |

You might want to revisit your ideas, unless you expect next council |
| 44 |
elections to require primaries first. I sincerely don't want to spend |
| 45 |
time to rewrite this as a "manifesto" because it makes really not much |
| 46 |
sense. I don't take an opinion _just_ for the election, my opinions are |
| 47 |
open to anybody to see. And I did have time and interest in stayin in |
| 48 |
the council for two terms already. |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
With all sincerity, your "threat" makes me want to puke: if we're being |
| 51 |
forced to write manifestos, I might just as well reject my nomination, |
| 52 |
as I find that just useless bureaucracy. |
| 53 |
|
| 54 |
And no I won't be wearing a Gentoo logo pin on my lapel. |
