As per Article 12, there must be an election for who will take on the project manager role for the current development cycle, and the requirement to be considered as a candidate for the project manager election is to meet the requirements for being considered an active developer for the previous 18 months. Based on the output of this script, the following people qualify:

All developers listed above must send a PM to the Board by April 1127th 00:00 UTC if they are interested in being a candidate in the election. Any developer who does not reply will be assumed to not be interested in being a candidate.

If there is anyone else who believes they or someone else should be eligible to be a candidate, please let us know.

Direct links for sending PMs to the Board members:

• Elvish_Hunter - currently not able to frequently check any PMs sent to them.
• Pentarctagon
• Soliton

I can openly declare I am not in the running. Best wishes to those who are!

Since no applications have been sent before the deadline (the one we received arrived too late), the time limit has been extended until April 27th, 00:00 UTC.

I wonder if it would help increase candidate turnout in the future if private and direct messages are sent out to the qualifying candidates?

I am a bit curious what percentage of those who qualified for the role knew that they did. Some developers who are primarily active on Github may not have seen this or or the notification on IRC.

There's only one or two who might not have known - everyone else would've either been included in the developer group ping about it on Discord or I've otherwise seen them mention it so I know from that they're aware.
