If I misunderstood your desire to be Chair I apologize. I stepped up to make sure we had a new chair even though my workload is very high right now. I thought you had changed your mind about waiting until next year. If you do not want it, My offer still stands and I'll stand in.

[DISCUSS][VOTE] New Apache OpenOffice PMC Chair
Maybe not known for everyone, I want to point out the following: Please use the VOTE thread *only* for voting. For discussions it is best to open a new [DISCUSS] thread to leave the voting clean from discussion stuff. Now back to the question "Why is the vote still going on?": I don't see a need to cancel the vote as: 1) it is allowed to change your vote as often you want as long as the vote is still open. 2) we need a "[0] Abstain" way to express, e.g., "I cannot support the volunteer (due to reason X) but also don't want to vote with -1". With a lazy consensus instead vote you need to write *in any way* why you don't want to have the volunteer as chair. 3) the remaining volunteer is still here and willing to take over. So, what would be the advantage of cancelling this vote and starting a new vote with only Peter as electable person? ;-) My 2ct Marcus Am 13.12.2017 um 13:38 schrieb Matthias Seidel: I am not sure about the rules, but it is not uncommon that one nominee resigns and the remaining one gets votes... ;-) Regards, Matthias Am 13.12.2017 um 13:29 schrieb Peter kovacs: I do not understand. :( But isn't the vote then invalid?
