As 'sinplomo' has not officially retracted his candidacy (nor has he
so far given any of the details I requested, but that's a different
issue), he *is* still a candidate, until he lets us know otherwise.

You're right that past contributions and track record is a very
important, and possibly the most important factor when selecting a
coordinator. But it's not the only factor. Other factors that may play
a part in the selection is the willingness to follow process and
policies, and, for example, provide us with the information that we
need and that we have requested. So far, no candidate has.
