NO.. it should require absolutely no effort at all for someone to decline. If you don't want to be on the ballot you should not have to edit the wiki page and remove yourself or else we are going to run the risk of having people in the candidate list who have no god damn idea what is going on. Being a part the slate of candidates must require an affirmed acceptance from the candidate. The candidate must be ultimately accountable for what is said on the nomination page. I would much rather see personal endorsements from other community members added to a profile of each candidate. Isn't that what nominating someone else really is? A personal endorsement of that person. So we add an endorsement section so individuals can endorse candidates as they see fit and other users can use those personal endorsements to rank the candidates value. -jef _______________________________________________ fedora-advisory-board mailing list fedora-advisory-board@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-advisory-board
