Hi Mikle,
first of all, no need to defend. I think it's very good to have
diversity. And it's perfectly fine if one candidate wants to be more
active (in which case I would like to ask him or her why he or she
wasn't active before like you don't have to be member of the council to
bring yourself into Gentoo and mgorny is a perfect *positive* example
how you would do that) and another believe he/she should be more passive.

That's a good example I think. *I* don't believe that council members
have to actually write GLEPs just because they are part of the council.
If you have an idea I think it's normal that you will start working on
this and start writing the proposal. Sure, you will probably allow
others to join and help you. But expecting that you just post the idea
to the mailing list and that others, especially the council, should pick
this up and discuss *your* idea *for* you and do all the rest is not the
way I see council's role.
