+To: debian-devel-announce@lists.debian.org
+Subject: Call for (self-)nominations for technical committee seats
+
+First and foremost, the technical committee would like to thank Bdale
+Garbee and Steve Langasek for serving on the committee in addition to
+their many other services to Debian. Given the newly introduced §6.2.7
+"Term limit", both their terms will expire on December 31st 2015, and
+there will be two empty seats which can be filled.
+
+To fill these seats, we are soliciting nominations, including
+self-nominations. To nominate yourself or someone else, please send
+e-mail to debian-ctte-private@debian.org with the subject "CTTE
+Nomination of loginname", where loginname is the nominee's Debian
+account login.[1] Please let us know in the body of the e-mail why the
+nominee would be a good fit for the committee, specifically instances
+where the nominee was able to help resolve disagreements, both
+technical and non-technical.
+
+Being a member of the committee does require a time commitment.
+Members should be able to follow e-mail discussions on an ongoing
+basis and respond within a couple of days so that discussions
+progress. Members should ideally be able to spend 10 hours a month
+for relatively busy months, but typical time requirements will be
+less.
+
+We anticipate starting our selection process on or about the first of
+December. After the selection, the committee will then recommend
+nominees to the project leader, who may appoint the nominees (§6.2).
+
