Just pushing this one also up.
It is not yet time to announce yourself, but make up your mind (may take some days ;)).

I think most names is very suitable for a vote. But personal I would like to see any elected person to choose between admin/council/director/mod. Only one role per member if possible.

Gerbick left the building. I hope he's OK where ever he is, the good old gerbick. But he can't get nominated since he left, right? Plus, he has declined more times than...3.

Is it OK to nominate someone without their prior consent? If I nominate someone without asking privately first and the person does not accept, (s)he will have to turn down the nomination publicly. Some people may not like this kind of pressurising.

Not that I am too bothered personally. I would ask the person first but I did not mind turning down my nomination publicly the last time. I also promised to accept it this time and I am happy to keep the promise if needed.

While I wouldn't mind running for Council now that I have got the breather I needed, I have to reject this nomination simply due to differing time zones. Living in Singapore means I am only available from 1500-1700 GMT while meetings start and end out of this range hence making it impractical to participate.

There is no fixed dates for meetings and it can be reorganized depending on the location of councilors ...

Indeed. The current practice of having weekly Council meetings on tuesdays @ 20:00 UTC is just something that was decided between Councillors as a timeframe mostly suitable or us. Anything can be arranged, including more or less formal meetings.

Besides, it is the usual practice that Council can be contacted by Maemoans via posting to council mailing list or raising a topic on #maemo-meeting any time they want. One or more Councillors should be checking the channel frequently.


All times are GMT. The time now is 16:45.
