      MSGID: 1:18/200.0 61ef1394        All RCs and members of a nominating committee are hereby        invited to nominate members. Nominations must be posted in the        FTSC_PUBLIC echo.               Nominations start at Sunday, 30 January 2022, 20:00 UTC and end at        Sunday, 20 February 2022, 20:00 UTC.               Nominators are advised to sound out prospective nominees before        filing a nomination. There is little or no point in nominating        someone that has not shown interest and expressed willingness to        accept.               Note to candidates: The main task of the FTSC is to document current        practise. Contrary to what the name suggests, the FTSC does not create        standards out of the blue. Current Fidonet practise evolves and when        it has stabilized, it may become a standard through FTSC        documentation.               Also, the FTSC is not an enforcement body. Those who wish to join the        FTSC in order to "engineer Fidonet" may be in for a disappointment.        Our main job is that of a clerk. We write the technical manual, we do        not design the machine. To avoid disappointment, sysops interested in        joining the FTSC are strongly advised to read the following documents:               http://ftsc.org/docs/fta-1000.002        http://ftsc.org/docs/fta-1001.007               Andrew Leary        FTSC Election Coordinator        -----------------------------------------------------------------                      2022 FTSC Standing Member Election - Time Frame        Andrew Leary - 1:1/19@fidonet               2022 FTSC standing member election, time frame        ==============================================                      Submission of nominations:        Sunday, 30 Jan 2022, 20:00 UTC - Sunday, 20 Feb 2022, 20:00 UTC               Acceptance of nominations by candidates:        Right after nomination - Sunday, 27 Feb 2022, 20:00 UTC               Candidates MUST accept by posting a message in FTSC_PUBLIC in order        to qualify, with the exception of self nominees.
