Council to elect three members.

The term will be for two years, 2014-06-17 to 2016-06-17.

As in the past, the election will be conducted using CIVS (Condorcet Internet

ranking vote recipients will be elected.

Eligibility:

All Kubuntu Members ( https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-members/+members ) are
eligible to be nominated and to vote.  If you have a public email address in
Launchpad, you need take no further action to receive your voting ballot.  If
you do not have a public email address, please contact me offlist with the
address you'd like your ballot sent to, otherwise you will be unable to vote.

Nominations:

All Kubuntu members are eligible.  The Kubuntu Council is intended to
represent all of the Kubuntu community.  Applications from involved non-
developers are encouraged.  If you are nominating someone else, please confirm
their willingness to serve before nominating them.  Nominations should be done
in public via either kubuntu-users or kubuntu-devel mailing lists.  If there
is some extraordinary reason that precludes that, contact me directly.

Commitment:

The Kubuntu Council is the leadership body of Kubuntu.  Members of the council
are expected to be active in Kubuntu.  The Kubuntu Council has three primary
roles:
 - Approve development plans for future Kubuntu releases
 - Approve Kubuntu membership applications
 - Resolve disputes within the Kubuntu project

The time commitment is not large.  Meetings are generally only once every
several months and conducted via IRC.

Questions:

If there are questions, you can contact me (preferably) via this mailing list
or (if really necessary) via direct mail.
