PTL Nomination is now over. The official candidate list is available on
the wiki[0].

There are 5 projects without candidates, so according to this
resolution[1], the TC we'll have to appoint a new PTL for Barbican,
MagnetoDB, Magnum, Murano and Security

This is devil's advocate, but why does a project technically need a PTL?
  Just so that there can be a contact point for cross-project things,
i.e. a lightning rod?  There are projects that do a lot of group
leadership/delegation/etc, so it doesn't seem that a PTL is technically
required in all cases.

I think that is a great question for the TC to consider when they
evaluate options for action with these projects.

The election officials are fulfilling their obligation according to the
resolution:
http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/governance/tree/resolutions/20141128-elections-process-for-leaderless-programs.rst

If you read the verb there the verb is "can" not "must", I choose the
verb "can" on purpose for the resolution when I wrote it. The TC has the
option to select an appointee. The TC can do other things as well,
should the TC choose.

I agree- and this is a great example of places where human judgement is better than rules.

For instance - one of the projects had a nominee but it missed the deadline, so that's probably an easy on.

For one of the projects it had been looking dead for a while, so this is the final nail in the coffin from my POV

For the other three - I know they're still active projects with people interested in them, so sorting them out will be fun!




There are 7 projects that will have an election: Cinder, Glance, Ironic,
Keystone, Mistral, Neutron and Oslo. The details for those will be
posted tomorrow after Tony and I setup the CIVS system.

Thank you,
Tristan
