Team, We're only two weeks away from the beginning of the Newton elections period. Based on the Fuel 9.0/Mitaka release schedule [0], I propose the following dates for PTL and CL self-nomination and election periods: PTL self-nomination: March 13-20 PTL election: March 21-27 CL self-nomination: March 28-April 3 CL election: April 4-10 Now that we have separated fuel-ui repository from fuel-web [0], it's going to be much easier to hold elections for a UI component lead, and I propose that we do that in the Newton cycle. I proposed a team structure change that removes the special case we have defined for Fuel UI, and introduces fuel-ui as a proper component [2]. Please don't postpone this until the very last moment: start thinking about nominating yourselves for these essential roles, and start working on your self-nomination announcements.
