I do not expect that commitment from more than those 10, if more are willing to step forward and say they will, I am happy to have them also. If I can't find 10 people with that much faith in me, I probably don't need to be on the board anyhow. > > Thank you for the question and well wishes. It seems like an odd requirement. What if someone thinks you are a great candidate but also thinks someone else on the slate is a great candidate? We are electing five people, not one. What if someone thinks you are a great candidate but someone else on the slate is a terrible candidate, and wants to use their range vote to give the other candidates a reasonable number of votes and the one they think is terrible no votes? All of these things seem orthogonal to a person's support for you as a candidate, so the requirement seems a bit quixotic. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net _______________________________________________ advisory-board mailing list advisory-board@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/advisory-board
