FESCo has 5 elected seats open. These are the only two elections I am aware we will run. In addition, with no objections raised so far, the Board discussed on today's call adjusting the schedule, such that it completes within 30 days of the release of Fedora 11. The 4 weeks I had allowed for nominations was also considered excessive. As such, the new schedule will be: * Nominations are open from 15 May through 29 May. Individuals may provide questions they would like candidates to answer. * IRC Town Hall-style discussions with candidates for the various positions will be arranged for 31 May through 6 June. Candidates will be given a set of written questions suggested above, to answer by public email if they wish. * The elections will take place 7 June through 22 June. Please see the Elections page [1] for links to each of the nominations pages, and where you may add your own questions you would like the candidates to present written answers to. Candidates may answer (or not) as they wish, by mail to fedora-advisory-board before the election period begins.
