Craig It was on 7/1/23 at about 8pm Brisbane time so before deadline at 10:59pm Brisbane time. I had a 15" monitor then so had to zoom to 90% to see all the nav bar buttons horizontally on linux.org.au site after this happened but it was too late. Button for accept nomination may have been below fold. I will have to wait till next January to test it again. Yesterday I bought 24" monitor so I can see all the site as most sites are now designed for 24" not 15" monitors.
