So far (hopefully I haven't missed anyone) the volunteers I have are: Neil McGovern (Maulkin) David Nusinow (gravity) Pete Nuttall (psn) MJ Ray (slef) Mohammed Adnène Trojette (adn) [If I've missed you, please respond to let me know.] > Also, if any of you have comments about the format of the debate now > would be an appropriate time to raise them. > > http://svn.donarmstrong.com/don/trunk/projects/debian/dpl_debates/debate_rules_public.txt > > are the rules that we used last year, but they are (of course) > totally open to revision. To date no one has really commented on the rules for the debate, so I'll assume that the proposed format is acceptable unless someone coments. The next small issue as far as format goes is the number of candidates this year. I'm not sure how well a 9 candidate debate will work, and a suggestion was made to hold two separate debates. I'm open to do either even though the second means more work for me, but I don't want to unecessarily segregate candidates if that can be avoided. I'd like to make a decision on the time for the debate within the next few days, so if you have serious objections to either method, you need to make them known. Don Armstrong -- Quite the contrary; they *love* collateral damage. If they can make you miserable enough, maybe you'll stop using email entirely. Once enough people do that, then there'll be no legitimate reason left for anyone to run an SMTP server, and the spam problem will be solved. -- Craig Dickson in <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.donarmstrong.com http://rzlab.ucr.edu
