To that end, I'm placing a deadline on nomination/acceptance of April 30th and will be opening the vote (assuming we have more than 2) on May 1st. At the moment, cmb is the only confirmed candidate, though I have promises from Derick Rethans that he'll step up as the second half of a team (and experienced RM, even if not recent) should that prove necessary. I want to encourage anyone who is "on the fence" or worried they won't be able to pull it off to just go for it. We have a large group of active, experienced RMs, a decent supply of tooling, a surprising amount of documentation, and if circumstances change and you just can't do the job a year from now, that's no problem. We can reshuffle teams and/or provide temporary support between versions (For example, I put out 7.1.13 and 7.1.14 because Davey and Joe both had obligations, and that was fine). PHP is your language. -Sara
