Fedora Ambassadors Steering Committee Election 2008: Nominations
Candidates may be any member of the Ambassadors group in the Fedora Accounts System. This helps ensure FAmSCo members have some experience with the processes of Fedora Ambassadors but still allows relatively new contributors to sit on FAmSCo and bring fresh ideas to the table.
Nominations are open from 28 October through 3 December, 2008. The elections will take place 7 December through 20 December, 2008.
You may self-nominate. If you wish to nominate someone else, please consult with that person ahead of time. Wiki nomination pages carry additional details about the nominee which the nominee is expected to write.
