In case you missed it, the Python Packaging Council is being established this year with the acceptance of PEP 772.
I’m starting this topic as a place to share announcements related to the election, since a lot of the folks interested in Python Packaging are active here. If you want to discuss the election, I do request that happen in a separate topic from this one.
With the context setting out of the way, here’s the first election announcement covering the election timeline, with some words on the council and who might want to consider running for it!
You can find more details about it: nominating yourself or someone else for the council for this inaugural election in the announcement that just went up!
We’re excited to announce the candidates for the inaugural Python Packaging Council
Nomination and supporting statements are the clearest way to see how each candidate actually thinks: their priorities, experience, and vision for the PPC. Rather than just voting on name recognition, we encourage you to read each candidate’s nomination and supporting statements. Reading these statements helps ensure your vote reflects what the candidates would actually do in the role.
