Subsequently, this email is a call for nominations to fill both of their positions although one elected developer will not begin their term immediately. The DMB is responsible for reviewing and approving new Ubuntu developers [1], meeting for about an hour once a fortnight. Candidates should be Ubuntu developers themselves, and should be well qualified to evaluate prospective Ubuntu developers and decide when to entrust them with developer privileges or to grant them Ubuntu membership status. The new member will be chosen using Condorcet voting. Members of the ubuntu-dev team in Launchpad will be eligible to vote. To ensure that you receive a ballot in the initial mail, please add a visible email address to your Launchpad profile (although there will be an opportunity to receive a ballot after the vote has started if you do not wish to do this). The term of the new board members will be at least two years (there will be some changes to terms to get these two positions to share the same expiration date). Providing at least three valid nominations are received, voting will commence on Tuesday, May 30, 2017 and will last for approximately 7 days, ending on or around Tuesday, June 6, 2017. The DMB will confirm the appointments in its next meeting thereafter. Please send GPG-signed nominations to developer-membership-board at <a href="http://lists.ubuntu.com" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">lists.ubuntu.com</a> (which is a private mailing list accessible only by DMB members) by midnight UTC on Monday, May 29, 2017. If nominating a developer other than yourself, please confirm that the nominee is happy to sit on the board before emailing the DMB. Please consider writing a short statement on your wiki page if nominated so that others get a better idea of for whom they are voting. If you include a link to this wiki page in your nomination mail or a followup, the DMB will share it when the call for votes begins.

Let's try and find some new people for the board!
