 Can't women nominate themselves?

Of course they can.  I will be more careful next time, and replace
it by the candidate.

You mean I can nominate someone else? ;-P

Hi,

The nomination period for the DPL election is almost over.  If you
want to nominate yourself as canidate you need to send a signed
mail to the debian-vote@lists.debian.org list.

I hereby nominate myself as a candidate in the DPL election
2009. Platform to follow shortly.

Apologies for leaving this so late: I've been unsure whether or not I
wanted to stand again this year, but after a lot of pestering by
friends I've decided I should. If elected, I will be appointing an
assistant to help with the workload. Luk Claes has volunteered to be
that person, and I thank him for that. :-)

can?  lists?

How about...

In order for their self-nominations to be considered valid, Debian
Developers must send a GPG-signed email in which they nominate
themselves to the debian-vote@lists.debian.org mailing list.
