[gentoo-project] Gentoo Foundation: A second election

[Alec Warner]

Greetings,

Due to the tie in the first election we have chosen to seat robbat2
and antarus and hold another election for the 3rd seat. alicef and
reopen_nominations tied in the last election. To resolve the tie we
will hold a second election (with nomination period.) If alicef is the
only person nominated; we are likely to forgo voting in the second
election and simply seat her (to conserve time.) The board does not
want to have a board of 4 people[0].

All times and dates UTC.
The nomination period begins now and lasts for 7 days (through the end
of Aug 30 2021.)
Voting begins Sept 1 2021 and ends Sept 8 2021.

Thanks,

-A

[0] If the members keep voting to reopen_nominations it will cause the
seat to be vacant and the board can fill the seat at their pleasure or
keep it empty. We are basically saying we will fill it; we do not want
an empty seat.
