Re: The 19th NetBeans Governance Board: Sven Reimers and Zoran Severac

Thanks guys. I only intend to serve on the Gov Board for one more term 
then I'll hand it over to someone else, but like Sven I feel like there 
are some initiatives that are in mid-stream and I want to see it 
through. One of the things I would like to propose is extending the term 
to a full year rather than six months. Six months is a pretty short time 
to get anything meaningful done, especially as we have to fit the work 
we do on NB processes in around our "day jobs".
