Re: Kubuntu Council Elections 2014 - Call for Nominations
I'd like to put myself forward for the Kubuntu council again. Over the last two years I've worked hard to keep Kubuntu thriving despite the stepping back of our primary sponsor. We continue to have significant technical and political challenges but I'm now more confident of our future than I have been for the last couple of years. I'm mindful that we have fewer new contributors than we have in the past and I'd like to spend some effort over the next year to try to fix that. Although I've been involved with Kubuntu since the start and a member of the council since we started it nothing would make me prouder than to be out-voted and have more fresh talent as part of it.

Re: Kubuntu Council Elections 2014 - Call for Nominations
I'd like to nominate Myriam Schweingruber, she's well known around the Kubuntu and KDE communities and stays on IRC as Mamarok. For many years she has kept an eye on our kubuntu-users mailing list, answering queries and keeping the discussion sane. She's been around Kubuntu for about as long as anyone. She'd make a community focused addition and has agreed to be nominated.
