Email me if you have questions. New Nomination Process! This year we have created a new way to submit nominations. The primary focus was to improve the fairness of how nominations are displayed and to move the process onto the python.org infrastructure. We will send out instructions for how to nominate others and/or yourself later this month. Unlike past years, the only requirement for nominating someone or accepting a nomination will be a free basic account on python.org. If you do not have an account, one can be created at https://www.python.org/accounts/signup/. For those that are interested, here's a screencast of how the new nomination process will work: https://youtu.be/sORneSQNOmc. Slack Channel "Open House" On May 20th, the PSF directors will host a 24-hour "open house". During this time, we welcome those that are considering running for the board and have questions.
