Are you interested in serving on ZCG? Now is your chance!
Two committee members will reach the end of their terms at the end of June: @Wobbzz and @GGuy
Anyone can stand for election, including existing members seeking re-election. In addition, any community member may nominate someone else by encouraging them to run and/or submitting a post on their behalf (with that person’s consent).
To nominate yourself, simply post a candidacy announcement (ideally five paragraphs or fewer) in the #governance:zcg-elections category. Your post should outline your vision, priorities, and reasons for wanting to serve on ZCG.
