Election from 2020-04-14T23:45 to 2020-04-21T23:45
According to: https://civs.cs.cornell.edu/cgi-bin/results.pl?id=E_6c71f84caff2b37c
The TC election closed on 06/03/2019, 10:45:23, so given a 16month term (as described in https://www.openstack.org/legal/technical-committee-member-policy/) we're okay to maintain the TC as is.
The net result is that *current* PTLs have to serve for an "extra" week.
/me will probably regret not reading the whole thread before replying
I'm a tl;dr it all for ya: bylaws say the TC can declare a term that's up to 16 months, but if they don't specify it prior to the election for that term (which they didn't) then it defaults to 12 and what you have there is (accounting for your curious way of writing 2019-03-05T23:45:23UTC) is a ~13.5 month term. In order to avoid needing a special election to fill the expired terms for ~6 weeks until the election, we need to pull it in by at least a couple weeks (because the charter will allow those seats to remain vacant if the open up within a month of a scheduled election).
