[Sugar-devel] Election status?

[Walter Bender]

I don't know about the election, but there has been progress regarding the
membership process. Kudos to Samson, Caryl, and Sebastian for improving
that process. I expect that Adam will report in at the next SLOB meeting,
which is Monday, 5 Oct.

regards.
