Yes, I was.  The traffic on xorg@ is rather important, and I only
check that list every month or so.

I am fully convinced of that, and I am glad to have your confirmation.

>> I would like to request that the nominations deadline should be

> This is certainly possible, especially given our own error mentioned above.

Please do add at least a token delay.  Doing otherwise might generate
some bad press for X.Org.
