Do you think you'll get a lot of candidates? If not, I'd say keep the
process low-overhead and just take self-nominations.

 DRAFT Call for Plone 4.x Framework Team Members

 Would you like to help choose what goes into Plone 4?

 The Plone Framework team is now receiving applications for membership in the
 Plone 4 Framework Team.

 The Framework Team will be responsible for evaluating the PLone Improvement
 Proposals (PLIPS) for Plone 4.x. The team also nominates the release manager
 to the Plone Foundation Board, which does the hiring. PLIP evaluation
 consists of considering the benefits and risks associated with a PLIP and
 casting a reasoned and explained +/- 1 vote on each proposal. Framework Team
 members also follow PLIP implementation, and make recommendations to the
 Release Manager.

 Qualifications include:

 An awareness of community strategic discussions about Plone's development;
 Ability to make a long-term committment. Plone 4 will take some time, and
 the team will stay together to work on the entire 4.x series.
 A good understanding of Plone's architecture and UI: enough to weigh risks
 and benefits;
 Time to keep up with discussions on the Framework Team mailing lists;
 The ability to occasionally budget a significant amount of time for
 evaluating PLIPs in detail as feature-lock deadlines approach;
 The ability to work with SVN well enough to test PLIP integration and
 implementation for final evaluation;
 The personality to get along well in a flexible, give-and-take group process
 and to accept and support group decisions.

 New Framework Team members will be chosen by existing Framework Team members
 and involved FWT alumni. Considerations will include many criteria beyond
 the simply technical. The new team must be balanced in skills and likely to
 work well together.

 Please note something new: the Plone 3.x Framework Team will continue to
 work on enhancing Plone 3.x during the development of Plone 4 and possibly
 afterwards.

 If you're interested, please send an introductory note, explaining your
 interest and qualifications, to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Postings
 from non-subscribers are rejected, so if you're not a subscriber, send your
 message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a request for forwarding.
