Trustee Elections

Its election time and frankly I haven't got a clue who to vote for. A few trustees nominating themselves for election have listed what they have done, which is great, but we're still clueless about what the Foundation has been doing as a whole or voting on because the mailing list archive hasn't been made public. Could someone at least tell us what the 12 month hold-up has been? Maybe someone can help get us that archive before elections are over.

Thank you Sven for being the first current trustee to really speak up. Lets hope you've started a trend.

A lot of you nominating yourselves are saying something like "I won't say much because most of you know me". We have hundreds of developers now and I think I can safely say most of us don't know each other. For some bizarre reason I think I can name what text editors and desktop enviroments a lot of you use, but I couldn't tell you much else, and I really don't want to base my vote on that. So please speak up and we'll have more informed voters. Tell us what you'd like to see changed and what role you'd like to take.
