The Technical Committee would like to thank Keith for serving since +November 2013, in addition to all the other work he does for Debian. + +To fill this seat, we are soliciting nominations, including self-nominations. +To nominate yourself or someone else, please send an e-mail to +debian-ctte-private@debian.org with the subject "TC Nomination of loginname", +where loginname is the nominee's Debian account login¹. Please let us know in +the body of the e-mail why the nominee would be a good fit for the TC, +specifically instances where the nominee was able to help resolve +disagreements, both technical and non-technical. We would like to start our +selection process on or about the first of December. + +Being a member of the TC 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 are in the process of documenting how the TC implements the nomination +process as outlined in §6.2, including clarifying what is made public (such as +nominations) and when. Any nominee is of course free to drop off the process +at any point in time. + +Regards, + OdyX, for the TC
