I think both are close to each other as both want to strengthen the community. Louis seems to focus on marketing (and to improve the look other have from the outside) and Jan is focusing more on resource improvements inside of the project. For realizing both ideas we need to improve the community and its work. So, what about to let both try to realize this as kind of dual chair?
This is not a crazy idea at all. I mean, I'm certain that both will help, and that I will help actively too, and you Marcus, and all other active people, each in their favorite area. We will obviously need to elect one Chair, but this leaves unchanged opportunities for the others to help.
The solution to what clearly is an issue (i.e., our PMC members listed at http://people.apache.org/committers-by-project.html#openoffice-pmc are not very active or very coordinated on average) can be different. Louis wrote about "facilitation", Jan wrote about "action", and these are two different ways to address the issue.
One very clear thing is that the PMC will no longer be passively watching the others work, in any case. So guys, be prepared to have to be active! Would you work better with a certain candidate than with another one? Do you prefer a certain style? Please use this discussion to briefly state and exchange your views, and then we will move to voting.
