    IMHO, the current process leaves enough time for proposing a
    candidacy, given that it's first advertised by beginning of the
    cycle on the main Release schedule wiki page (eg. for Liberty [1])
    and then officially announced 8 days before the deadline. We also
    know that PTL elections come around 6 weeks before the Summit every
    cycle. One last official annoucement is made 1 day before the
    deadline.<br>
    <br>
    Trying to target the very last moment for providing a candidacy just
    seems risky to me in that condition and we should really propose to
    the candidates to not wait for the last minute and propose far
    eariler.<br>

                missed a deadline because my wrong planning and time
                zones nightmare!</div>
              <div>However, the rules were very clear and I assumed my
                mistake. So, we should assume that we do not have
                candidates and follow the already described process.
                However, this should be very easy to figure out for the
                TC, it is just a matter to find our who is interested in
                the PTL role and consulting with the core team of that

                                  the wiki[0].<br>
                                  <br>
                                  There are 5 projects without

                                This is devil's advocate, but why does a

                                  Just so that there can be a contact
                                point for cross-project things,<br>
                                i.e. a lightning rod?  There are
                                projects that do a lot of group<br>

                              I think that is a great question for the
                              TC to consider when they<br>
                              evaluate options for action with these
                              projects.<br>
                              <br>
                              The election officials are fulfilling
                              their obligation according to the<br>

                              If you read the verb there the verb is
                              "can" not "must", I choose the<br>
                              verb "can" on purpose for the resolution
                              when I wrote it. The TC has the<br>
                              option to select an appointee. The TC can
                              do other things as well,<br>
                              should the TC choose.<br>

                          </span>I agree- and this is a great example of
                          places where human judgement is better than
                          rules.<br>
                          <br>
                          For instance - one of the projects had a
                          nominee but it missed the deadline, so that's
                          probably an easy on.<br>
                          <br>
                          For one of the projects it had been looking
                          dead for a while, so this is the final nail in
                          the coffin from my POV<br>
                          <br>
                          For the other three - I know they're still
                          active projects with people interested in
                          them, so sorting them out will be fun!
