I would like to nominate Andrea Pescetti.
Andrea is one of the most active and well respected members of the
project, and I believe he would make a great PMC Chair.

Moving right along...
I'd like to restart the discussion over choosing a PMC Chair. The
previous proposed process was discussed in:
http://markmail.org/message/mrgnjtiuum5bovjd
I'd like to take up where that left off.
Here is the process (with minor modifications) from the original:
You can read about the duties of a PMC Chair here:
http://www.apache.org/dev/pmc.html#chair
1) Nominations would be open for 72 hours. Anyone can nominate
someone for the role. Self-nominations are fine. And of course
nominations can be declined.
2) If there is only one nomination, then we are done, provided there
are no sustained objections.
3) If there is more than one nomination we discuss on the list for
another 72 hours. Discussion would primarily be on ooo-dev, but some
subjects might be directed to ooo-private.
4) If after 72-hours discussion there are still two or more nominees
then we vote. Everyone would be welcome to vote, but binding votes
would be from PPMC members. If there are more than 2 candidates,
there will be a run-off vote between the top two nominees if none of
the nominees receive an outright majority.
(note: the last item was changed from the original - nothing more
complicated than a two way run-off is needed, as it is unlikely we
have more than two nominees.)
I think this process is straight forward enough that we should just
begin the process now.
