The Debian Project Leader electsions are going on. This is the yearly election for the leader, where members of the project vote for a new leader for a year. The debate this year seemed to me to be quite quiet, and voting activity seems to not be very high, either. Pity. Many years ago, the election period used to be quite energetic, bringing up some quite good viewpoints.
There seems to also not have been the usual repeat of the voting announcement, not sure what's going there. There's time until next Tuesday midnight (in the UTC time zone) to vote. Below are links to the vote page (with instructions for voting) and the (corrected) initial announcment.

I voted for Neil as my top candidate. I think he's got the best background and personality for being the leader of this project of ours.
