-Subject: Call for (self-)nominations for Technical Committee seats
-
-First and foremost, the technical committee would like to thank Don
-Armstrong and Andreas Barth for serving on the committee in addition
-to their many other services to Debian. Both of their terms will
-expire on December 31st 2016, 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 "TC
-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
-October. After the selection, the committee will then recommend
-nominees to the project leader, who may appoint the nominees (§6.2).
