Kubuntu Council re-election results

[Philip Muskovac]

Hi folks,

The nomination period for the new council members ended yesterday, with these 
nominations:

- Aaron Honeycutt
- Clay Weber
- Ovidiu-Florin Bogdan

as that matches the number of open seats, there will be no voting, so everyone 
please welcome our 3 new council members.

As previously announced, the membership of the other council members will be 
adjusted to end one year from now, and the new members will start a regular 2 
year term.
