I actually hope *nobody* votes purely on a candidacy email. I would hate to see someone get elected who was just able to write a really nice email and does not otherwise participate regularly in the development community. I find someone's reputation based on the results they produce from ongoing involvement in the project even more important. -- Russell Bryant _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
