Hi, According to the constitution (5.2. Appointment), project leader elections should begin "six weeks before the leadership post becomes vacant, or (if it is too late already) immediately." The new project leader term starts on 2022-04-21. The time line looks like: | Period | Start | End | |------------+---------------------+-------------------| | Nomination | Saturday 2022-03-05 | Friday 2022-03-11 | | Campaign | Saturday 2022-03-12 | Friday 2022-04-01 | | Vote | Saturday 2022-04-02 | Friday 2022-04-15 | Prospective leaders should be familiar with the constitution, but just to review: there's a one week period when interested developers can nominate themselves and announce their platform, followed by a three week period intended for campaigning, followed by two weeks for the election itself. I intend to collect platform statements from the candidates, and publish them at http://www.debian.org/vote/2022/platforms/ at the end of the nomination period, which means around 2022-03-12. I suggest that the candidates send the platform, preferably in wml or HTML, to the secretary at least a day before the publication date. The format of the web page is open to discussion, but I suggest there be at least three sections: - Introduction / Biography - Major Goal / Meat of the platform - Rebuttal. The candidates can make a rebuttal. I would like to receive them in the first week of the campaign period, so I can publish them around 2022-03-20. Details and results for the vote will be published at: http://www.debian.org/vote/2022/vote_002 Please make sure that nominations are sent to (or cc:'d to) debian-vote, and are cryptographically signed. Kurt Roeckx Debian Project Secretary
