Husting post -- Jonathan Amery
30 Oct 2009 17:10:41 +0000 (GMT)
I guess I ought to start with an apology, or at least the "deadline
motivated" tendencies in me suggest that I should. Whilst I did

change the e-mail addresses by which people can contact the committee
or even route them via Jackson's broken software.
(Many people will know that it is now not possible to contact the
moderators of URCM if you have an Hotmail or Live accou ...

Questions for Chibal
Thu, 29 Oct 2009 14:32:40 +0000
I'm interested to know why three of the four chiark.greenend
candidates chose to use their @chiark.greenend address?
Was this to make some kind of public statement? If not, why not use a
broader range of (I'm sure) more frequently used email addresses?
Why did Mr Vernon choose to use his @debian address rathe ...

Question for candidates
Wed, 28 Oct 2009 18:26:13 +0000

formal committee decisions (eg, when asked to rule on a complaint or
