Looking forward for your opinions. In my humble view, both as an OSGeo charter member and GRASS-GIS' CRO (recently experienced the role for the new PSC election), I can only recommend to allow or even ask, in some way, all candidates to support their candidacy publicly. For the next GRASS-GIS' PSC election, I support what came out of a related thread, in a post by Micha Silver (see https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/wiki/PSC/Election2016#Aftertheelection): request (which, I know, is rather a bit strict) candidates to feedback the community by answering to the very question (slightly altered) "What should the community expect from my membership?"
