When a Project is created, or when its Project Lead resigns or departs, candidates for a new Project Lead may be nominated by the Group Leads of a Project’s Sponsoring Groups. Such a nomination must be approved by a Three-Vote Consensus of these Group Leads. The sponsoring group is the Build Group, and the lead is Tim Bell. I have no objection to your taking this role. However, I think we need to have a conversation, preferably in public, about how you intend to run this project. It's not good to do this in the dark. Andrew.
