Paul, I'm saying that it doesn't matter if a person is proposed by existing committers or by him/herself. They still have to be voted in and a comitter still has to send off a note to root to grant them karma. So even if we get 1000 people who propose themselves it makes no difference at all since they'll all be rejected. And the risk that we'd get a 1000-email flood of nominations that have no hope in hell of passing the vote is at the same level as someone signing up for this list and flooding it with plain ol' crap and can be dealt with in the same way. I don't see what the problem with proposing oneself as a committer is. /LS --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
