Your project leadership, the Fedora Documentation Steering Committee (FDSCo), is now opening all seats for election in this first FDSCo election during 2 to 12 Feb 2007.

The nominations page is:

Why are we doing this? Because it's the right thing to do, finally, and it also happens to be required by the Fedora Project. Projects such as the Fedora Documentation Project are important community

Essential election details are:

* 7 seats for FDSCo is the right size * All seats are open for this election * Every six months we have a new election and refresh 1/2 of the seats (4/3 split) * For this first election only, three of the seats are up for reelection in six months; otherwise, terms are one year long. * The three seats up for reelection are the three that received the fewest votes in the first election, just for this first election. * FDSCo elects its own chair on an annual basis; the chair is the project leader.

Speaking of leadership, it's way past time for me to send this email out. Let's fill up FDSCo and find someone to replace me, either this time or next time. I'm starting to get old and forgetful here! Need some new energy/blood to stir things up, while I continue on my curmudgeonly ways.

cheers - Karsten
