   I'm sure I should have raised this before, but now that registration
   is nearly upon us...

The period for public comment ended back in November.  During that period,
nobody objected to this requirement.  So it is too late to change it now.

   Why 75 words?  It only takes 13 for me to say "Guile is an
   implementation of Scheme, and I am one of its maintainers."  What
   are you looking for in the Statement of Interest that a simple
   statement like that does not provide?

I guess we're looking for more words...

   If this has already been discussed to death in the past, please feel
   free to point me to that.

No, actually, it wasn't discussed at all.  The steering committee picked
that number out of the air on the theory that if anybody had a problem with
it, they would object during the comment period.  Nobody objected.

Also nobody objected to the requirement that all voters must wear rubber
clown noses 24 hours a day during the voting period.  So I hope everybody
is ready for that as well.
