the submissions public for your input, and you have until

Governance Elections: Technical Committee</a></h3>
<p>Now that we have elected the Project Technical Leads for
the next release, the OpenStack community is called to
elect the last 3 members of the <a
href="http://wiki.openstack.org/Governance/Foundation/TechnicalCommittee">OpenStack
Technical Committee</a>. Per section 4.1(b) of the <a
href="http://wiki.openstack.org/Governance/Foundation/Bylaws">OpenStack
Foundation bylaws</a>, the Technical Committee (“TC”) is
a technical meritocracy managing all the technical matters
relating to OpenStack. It replaces the “Project Policy
Board” from the old governance.</p>
