Hi Gerfried, sorry for taking long to answer. This obviously demonstrates that we are not always as available as we wished. If after being elected my free time is strongly and permanently reduced, I will shorten my mandate. But I promise I will look left and right before crossing a street full of buses :) It is difficult to add much to what the other candidates and Anthony have already answered to this question. Being DPL can definitely be a final achievement that replenishes the energy and thirst for exploring other worlds. In my case, I think that I am far from having achieved my goals in Debian. When answering the “10 years” question, I wrote that I think that running Debian will mean more than just having it on one's destkop computer. I want to contribute to this adventure, this is why I participate to a Blends project and more modestly to some efforts for bringing Debian in the Clouds. I think that this combination, together with backports and snapshots, will be very powerful in the future. But this also challenges the way we publish our work. One of my motivations for standing as a DPL is to propose to the Project to expand in that direction. I think that after a one year term, I will be eager to go back to my Debian Med activities, and keep on hard work until the harvest. Have a nice day, [By the way, I apologise to all the persons who asked quiestions but did not yet get an answer. As Stefano noted, this campaign is much more intensive than last year's. This is something that I have not expected.] -- Charles -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-vote-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
