I also look forward to Eric's appointment as co-lead of the porting team.
Congrats from me too. I'm sure you will be a great Co-Lead.
Congrats also and thanks for the work done by Kevin during the past years.
Also, I thought persons in this position were appointed by a
comittee and not by a vote of those belonging or participating
(as I am) to the porting team.
Hmm. Not here or not always or so :-)
It depends also on what category the project belongs to. Rules for
Accepted or Incubators or NLC projects are differents here.
German mailinglist had a big discussion about the rules of
necessitations for this jobs and more detailed how many "voters"
are needed so that the election is guilty. All subscribed users, a
part of it, only those who voted even when they are the minority
and the majority didn't?
Being subscribed to a mailing list is not enough if you read the
guidelines. You should have to be an observer in the project, but lot of
active people are not project members, just as pointed Khirano for Eric :)
OOo community or parts of it are strange here in these questions.
Some rise the flag of grassroots democracy while other have nothing
against a ordering hand.
Well if you look at last lead/co-lead changes in Accepted projects :
l10n, api, installation, gsl, it seems they have all been nominated like
Eric, so imho it might be the fastest way we've find to replace
lead/co-lead when one resign in our community ;)
Kind regards
Sophie
