Dear Gentoo Community, |

|
| 3 |
Nominations for the Gentoo Council 2017 / 2018 election will start at |
| 4 |
00:00 UTC 2017/06/10 (Saturday) and will remain open for the next two |
| 5 |
weeks until the end of 2016/06/23 (Friday) (2016/06/24 00:00 UTC). |
| 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: |

| 21 |
(July 9th 00:00 UTC) |
| 22 |
(there is one day of break between nominations and voting so the |
| 23 |
infra team has time to set up everything) |
| 24 |

| 26 |
