At this time we are asking for you to submit your nominations for the
community members you wish to be considered for the NetBeans Governance
Board. Send an e-mail with your nominations to the [email protected]
alias, or by using our contact form. nbdiscuss is the preferred channel
as it is more open and the traffic is relatively low.

The e-mail should contain the names of one or more people who you would
like to nominate. Please tell us why you think they should be considered
and a bit more about their NetBeans experience (e.g. their project page,
blog). You can also nominate yourself.

last time zone. Nomination & voting schedule:
