"lists"? How about... In order for their self-nominations to be considered valid, Debian Developers must send a GPG-signed email in which they nominate themselves to the debian-vote@lists.debian.org mailing list. -- Luca Filipozzi, Director of Operations, UBC Electrical and Computer Engineering -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-vote-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Platform to follow shortly. Apologies for leaving this so late: I've been unsure whether or not I wanted to stand again this year, but after a lot of pestering by friends I've decided I should. If elected, I will be appointing an assistant to help with the workload. Luk Claes has volunteered to be that person, and I thank him for that. :-) -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK.st...@einval.com Into the distance, a ribbon of black Stretched to the point of no turning back signature.asc Description: Digital signature

You mean I can nominate someone else? ;-P (suggested phrasing: "To be valid, a Debian Developers can send a signed email in which they nominate themselves, to the debian-vote@lists.debian.org lists" this nicely avoids gender issues while not having to use single plural idiosynchracies) -- Home is where you have to wash the dishes. -- #debian-devel, Freenode, 2004-09-22 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-vote-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
