Thank you Josh for all your work over the years, and for the self
awareness that you are not doing the job you want to be doing. I think
that Petr would be able to the job technically very well, however I
object to your reasoning for nominating him. It seems to me that the
nominations is done with a strong bias to a small subset of the
technical directions we are going in. As the Engineering representive I
think there needs to also be a strong focus on the other things like
Fedora CoreOS, emerging technologies (some are coverd with objectives
like IoT), as well as the other technical challenges fedora is facing.
I also know Petr has a lot on his plate already.  Are we perhaps asking
too much of him?
