Hello Everyone,

Nominations for OpenStack PTLs (Project Team Leads) and TC
(Technical Committee) positions (5 positions) are now open
and will remain open until Feb 15, 2022 23:45 UTC.

All nominations must be submitted as a text file to the
openstack/election repository as explained at
https://governance.openstack.org/election/#how-to-submit-a-candidacy

Please make sure to follow the candidacy file naming convention:
candidates/z/<Project_Name or "TC">/<email_address>
(for example, "candidates/z/TC/stacker at example.org").

The name of the file should match an email address for your current
OpenStack Foundation Individual Membership. Take this opportunity to
ensure that your OSF member profile contains current information:

Any OpenStack Foundation Individual Member can propose their

candidacy for an available, directly-elected seat on the Technical
Committee.
