If I'm understanding the draft correctly, there would be initial appointments by the DPL for terms of 2 and 3 years. Then subsequently elections would be held when those terms expire or a delegate resigns. What is the rationale for this mix of appointment and election? I think that I prefer an election. I have understood some of the conflict between the past chairs and debconf-team to have arisen out of a sense that the choice of chairs was imposed from above. Preferring an election, I don't want to wait 2 & 3 years for a chance to vote. It doesn't make much sense to me at the moment to try to have it both ways. -edrz _______________________________________________ Debconf-team mailing list Debconf-team@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-team
