[gentoo-project] Questions to nominees

[David Seifert]

Nominees,
congratulations on your nominations! As part of this year's elections,
I'd like to pose five questions to the nominees, that I believe are
important factors in considering someone a good candidate for the
council:

1. Do you feel you have enough time to commit to serving as a Gentoo
council member in the 2021/2022 term? Does your commit activity support
this? If you served in 2020/2021, have you prepared for council meetings
and finished all unfinished business for which you were responsible (as
a council member)?

2. Project X and Project Y have irreconcilable differences, but you
aren't involved with any of the projects. A crucial technical decision
needs to be made. How will you react? Will you defer? Do you consider
abstaining a viable option for the group of people making decisions as a
last resort?

3. Given your typical area of responsibility, how have you performed?

4. What positive change/idea/plan do you have for Gentoo that you would
try to further (not necessarily as a council member)? By positive change
I mean actually changing something concrete, not some diffuse notion of
"improving how the council acts" or non-tangible deliverable.

5. Do you think the council should be more agile - i.e. take decisions
for the purpose of propelling Gentoo forward, rather than waiting for
the decision to be made for it? Would you consider a small number of
departing views on the mailing list or IRC to be enough to derail a
proposal? When do you consider a controversial issue to have been
discussed enough?

Regards
David
