According to the agreed-upon schedule, I'm now overdue to step down as chair and it's time for us to vote Bdale in. We have a one-week voting period before a new chair is named, of course; and I don't think it helps anything to have the seat vacant for that week, in spite of my tardiness. So I'm announcing with this mail that I will vacate the position of committee chair on April 18, i.e., 1 week from today. Regrettably, there hasn't been any discussion since the end of the last vote about how to manage these rotations properly without adding undue overhead, so I guess that may be something we need to discuss again this round. For my part, I definitely think that a 1-month rotation would be too short, regardless of whether any voting was required, just because anything that happens in the TC takes long enough that we would be doing a whole lot of shuffling of current business between chairs. Then again, I failed to step down on time because I was focusing on resolving the devmapper question first; so maybe asking each chair to conclude one item of business per month would actually improve the committee's efficacy? :) -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world. vorlon@debian.org http://www.debian.org/
