The electorate is requested to confirm their email address in gerrit, review.openstack.org > Settings > Contact Information > Preferred Email, prior to March 17 (UTC), 2016 so that the emailed ballots are mailed to the correct email address.

Candidates
Any individual member of the foundation can propose their candidacy (except the six TC members who were elected for a one-year seat in October).

Nominees propose their candidacy by submitting a text file to the openstack/election repository. The file must be placed in candidates/ /TC/.txt. The candidacy is then confirmed by elections officials through gerrit vote. See documentation below.
