Re: [IAEP] [Systems] 2017-2019 Sugar Labs Oversight Board Election - Stage I Call for candidates #1

Since there are many people who can't seem to edit the Wiki, and I don't think that should be a barrier to being a candidate, I offer to edit it for them if they post their submission as a public reply to the mailing list. Just say so in your mail. ;-) -- James Cameron http://quozl.netrek.org/
