Being PMC chair isn't going to help solve any problems because of our system
of checks and balances.

In other words, I don't see PMC chair being any more important or special or
enabled than simply being a member of the PMC, which I already am.

As I already said, I also don't think I have enough backing to:

    #1. Get voted into being the PMC chair.
    #2. Make enough of a change to help turn Jakarta around from a slow
        spiraling death.
