Re: [DISCUSS] [PMC] Proposed PMC Chair
I would also like to nominate
Donald Harbison (dpharbison)
Louis Suarez-Potts (louis)
Pedro Giffuni (pfg)
as candidates of the PMC Chair.
They are all well known in the community.

Re: [DISCUSS] [PMC] Proposed PMC Chair
Posted by Pedro Giffuni <pf...@apache.org>.
Hello Yong Lin;
I want to thank you for the nomination. I have toyed with the idea but I don't think
I am the ideal candidate for it.
I am rather particular in that I was never a part of the previous Oracle-led community
so I am afraid that at this time I can't really take a good decision towards whom it
should be (in fact the candidate I had, declined joining the PMC).
I would prefer if the PMC chair election were postponed until after ApacheCon to have
the chance of meeting in person other community members.
Pedro.

Yes, please select one nominee from your list of (3). It will
streamline the overall process.

Just a reminder, we are still in the 72 hours window of looking for candidates.
There is no hurry to vote for anyone. Let's focus on finding
candidates who can be and willing be the Chair.

Actually, I was not asking why or how this is done. I was stating
the conflict behind this. In short, nominating more than one person for
the chair is self-contraction. This violates the purpose of nomination,
and should not happen.
And also, should we add a rule of nomination that one person can
only nominate one candidate? This rule is most common in all kinds of
elections.

Re: [DISCUSS] [PMC] Proposed PMC Chair
Posted by Yong Lin Ma <ma...@apache.org>.
I would like to support any of them (include Andrea Pescetti) to be the Chair.
Right now, it depends on who of them willing to take the role and how
the we will choose from them.
After we get a list of confirmed candidates, we can vote for them.
Every one can vote for one or more than one. And finally the one who
get the most tickets (need reach a bar) will be the chair.
