I'm ready to vote, but Chris said it looks like the remaining folks
(including me) that were in the running have aligned beyond the
following nominee: Where is the mail from Noel saying he is no longer
standing? Have I missed something?

 Hi Folks,

 chair and it looks like the remaining folks (including me) that were in

 have aligned beyond the following nominee: Jukka Zitting. Suffice to say,
 he was
 *my first choice* :)

 In the interest of moving the current discussion matters forward, please
 VOTE
 on this recommendation to the board by the IPMC. I'll leave the VOTE open
 for at least the next 72 hours:

 [ ] +1 Recommend Jukka Zitting for the IPMC chair position.
 [ ] +0 Don't care.
 [ ]  -1 Don't recommend Jukka Zitting for the IPMC chair position
 because...

 Note that only VOTEs from the Incubator PMC members are binding, but
 all are welcome to voice their opinion and it will be recorded in the
 final
 tallies.

 Finally, just to note, these VOTEs on personnel are normally the only
 thing in Apache that is discussed in private (human/social issues), but
 in the interest of openness and transparency that has been demonstrated
 here during these discussions, I will hold this VOTE on the public list.

 Thanks!

 Cheers,
 Chris

 P.S. Here's my +1. Thanks buddy.

 Hi,

 After consideration and some convincing (thanks!), I've decided to
 throw also my hat into the ring as a candidate to be the next chairman
 of the IPMC.

 I believe in that role I could be more effective in focusing more of
 our collective attention at where I think it would do most good - at
 the actual podlings we're here to help.

 That said, the current incubation process clearly has problems and I
 very much support efforts to improve the way we work (even if the
 result is to replace the Incubator with something better). However,
 I'd like to leave the leadership on these efforts to others and, as
 mentioned elsewhere, rather try to act as a balancing force that helps
 achieve consensus where possible.

 Should I be elected, I'd resign as the chairman of the Jackrabbit PMC.
 In fact I think it's in any case high time for Jackrabbit to be
 rotating that role.

 Finally, if elected (and assuming the IPMC still exists), I'd serve
 for at most two years before calling for a re-election, or possibly
 much less if I don't find enough free cycles to perform the duty as
 well as it should.

 BR,

If this VOTE isn't successful, then he'll remain the chair. If

 Well, if there's an election, the fair thing is to include all candidates and 
 see who gets the majority. A vote on just one candidate is odd. 

I agree with Ross and Andrus that this is a strange way to hold an election, 
and I would be in favor of doing this in a different way.

We could hold separate VOTEs for each remaining candidate, and then
vote for the best vote thread?
(joke)

In case it's not obvious, I agree with Ross, Andrus and Marcel - I
think the current VOTE thread is invalid and should be cancelled.

I don't see how it is invalid.  Chris might have added more choices or
invited more discussion first, but he can call a vote.  If you prefer
that this choice not be made at this time then vote -1 and explain your

Agreed. My concern in raising this was more about showing respect to or
long serving chair than halting the vote (hence the DISCUSS tag). I want
too ensure people can object, Chris' calling of the vote indicated, in
error, that there was only one candidate.
