I appreciate the nomination by you and others, but after a whole month of thinking on this, I must decline, mostly for reasons of time commitmen= t. Council actually isn't a job I'd want to do; I'm not out to "be in charge." I'm sure I'd take the same approach that I would to everything else I do; do the job that's before me, but I don't think I'd be able to devote enough time to do a *good* job. I've no problem doing any necessary keelhauling etc., but I'm not sure that I have the time. And no matter how fast I'd try to learn, I'm not starting off with the same detailed knowledge of ebuilds and Portage that the other candidates have.= Meanwhile, I'll continue making a difference within Gentoo by doing documentation for any and all interested parties, and anything else I can contribute to, like the GWN. It's not council work, but I'll continue to try to make Gentoo better for everyone, at least in my little corner. :) --------------enig48682D3334ECA9D5781D2F7B Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFGsB4B5aFMlhMsVyURAmJhAJ9cuRMSfTJrJwSDss4qRLQTU8mXLwCeNaf0 E8IbFPQk9TRq7iahwjWICNY= =YYxb -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enig48682D3334ECA9D5781D2F7B-- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
