Management not-for-profit board and Community Council nomination period closes

The nomination period for the two concurrent elections have closed. The new "not-for-profit" organisation which will take over community ownership duties from Nokia has had six candidates declare their intention to stand:

* Randall Arnold
* Niel Nielsen
* Ivan Galvez Junquera
* Joerg Reisenweber
* Tim Samoff
* Craig Woodward.

There are three candidates for the Community Council, so they could replace the current council without the need for an election:

* Niel Nielsen
* Ivan Galvez Junquera
* Joerg Reisenweber

Si Howard is also standing for both bodies, but does not currently have a sufficient karma score; so is ineligible.
