(I almost missed this since it was after your valediction)

I guess the least roundabout but perhaps insufficiently nuanced way
to put it is: Anyone who wants the job is probably not suited.

The Douglas Adams version of this is:

Please accept this with the humor with which you would expect given
that author, and also that I'm in this class of self nominated folk.

I think, however, that given the massive commitment required and the
need to balance the role with employment constraints and all the
economic constraints associated with working on OpenStack being work
means that self-nomimation is probably the only realistic way to go. I
mention it more as a way jumping off point for further thinking than
a concrete proposal.
