There are no present delegates that I intend to remove. There are areas where I think additional delegates are needed on existing teams, however; there's plenty of work to go around, and I think the people who have already risen to delegate positions are more likely to be overwhelmed than to shirk their work. So, I'd like to try and make sure that the current delegates are less "whelmed". :) I do not think it is appropriate at this time to name individuals that I would be appointing -- for one thing, I'd need to ask them if they're interested first. To do so, I think, could unfairly influence those individuals' votes, or could be perceived as an attempt to do so. I'd rather people voted with their consciences unfettered by the promise of spoils. There are two exceptions to the above rule, since I'm already pretty confident how these individuals will vote. Both of my fellow candidates are sufficiently impressive people that I'd like to identify positions they might be happy with. Both Raphaël and Bdale have demonstrated plenty of initiative in running for DPL, and both have identified issues near and dear to their hearts that they'd like to work on. I think it would only be fair, if I am elected, for me to give them the opportunity to do so. -- G.
