That's an excellent point, Donnie, thanks for raising it. I hadn't meant to drop the xorg mailing list from my original reply, but here's the conclusion we came to in the discussion. The X.org board agreed to publish the names of nominees in a timely fashion after they have accepted a nomination by sending in a position statement. So, the following three nominees have accepted and their names will appear on the ballot: Donnie Berkholz <dberkh...@gentoo.org> Alan Coopersmith <alan.coopersm...@sun.com> Bart Massey <b...@cs.pdx.edu> The nomination period is now closed, so no new nominations will be accepted. But there's still time for people who were already nominated to accept the nomination by sending a position statement to: electi...@x.org In particular, any individuals who nominated themselves need to send in a position statement before next Monday, (February 9), if they still want their name to appear on the ballot. -Carl
