Dear Foundation Members,
I am announcing a new timeline for the upcoming Foundation Board
Elections because we, the Membership and Elections Committee, couldn't
hold the deadlines. We are very sorry for that. So don't worry, if you
haven't received any ballot yet.
We are working on that and you should receive your ballot and
instructions on Monday (tomorrow).
The new timeline, which you can find as iCal file at [0], will be:
