Sh1t! my cover is blown!
I actually thought about this (now that I'm even a passive user of IRC and all, but I'll let it pass for now. I also have a full-time job (well, technically 80% so that I can take care of the kids as well) plus kids (which as previously mentioned overlap with my job
There, I chicken out (for now). But I'll come back some day.
This coming from one with little to no time. That's why it's more fun to use percentage rather than hours.

Still, there's this small detail that I cannot quite solve. WTF does the council actually do?
I know, the question is (supposed to be) provocative. I have read the bylaws and related documents. Removing the Nokia-factor from the whole thing I don't quite see what *my* tasks would involve were I to candidate and get elected.
But hey, I'll anyway consider whether I actually want to candidate (there's still some time).

I am flattered by the nomination. I will take a few days to think about whether to accept the opportunity to stand for election...

Yeah, that pretty much it, I guess. No cocktail partys, red carpets, real appreciation or recognition. You are also almost always under attack from someone trying to know "stuff" better than you, doesn't really matter what you do

My Karma is less than 100 !
I can't be accepted for nomination, and I will continue my contributions as a "dumb" user.
All the nominations are good people.
But, I will have to decline the nomination
