Note that if the applicant listed more than four nominators, all were contacted but only the first four to reply are listed as only four are required. ======================================================================== Applicant: Name: Mark Goodge E-Mail: mark (at) good-stuff (dot) co (dot) uk Nominators: Name: Owen Dunn E-Mail: owend (at) chiark (dot) greenend (dot) org (dot) uk Name: Kat E-Mail: katstuff (at) the-kat (dot) org Name: Mike Fleming E-Mail: mike (at) tauzero (dot) co (dot) uk Name: Paul E-Mail: usenet (at) watman (dot) clara (dot) co (dot) uk ======================================================================== Applicant: Name: Fiona Gostling aka kat E-Mail: katstuff (at) the-kat (dot) org Nominators: Name: Paul E-Mail: usenet (at) watman (dot) clara (dot) co (dot) uk Name: Mark Goodge E-Mail: mark (at) good-stuff (dot) co (dot) uk Name: Matt Dawson E-Mail: matt (at) chronos (dot) org (dot) uk Name: Molly Mockford E-Mail: com2017 (at) mollymockford (dot) me (dot) uk ======================================================================== Applicant: Name: Chris Newport E-Mail: chris.newport (at) hotmail (dot) co (dot) uk Nominators: Name: Mark Goodge E-Mail: mark (at) good-stuff (dot) co (dot) uk Name: Matt Dawson E-Mail: matt (at) chronos (dot) org (dot) uk Name: Roger Hayter E-Mail: roger (at) hayter (dot) org Name: Molly Mockford E-Mail: com2017 (at) mollymockford (dot) me (dot) uk ======================================================================== Votetaker's Comments The applications were pretty straightforward; there were no rejected applicants or nominators, and no out-of-time applications or late nominator confirmations. One application was initially automatically rejected by the mail handling software, but the problem was fixed and the application was then processed without issue. I have not listed the applicants' Personal Statements in these results as these are effectively election manifestoes, and there is to be no election. ======================================================================== This process was conducted by a neutral third party member of UKVoting.

The rules under which votes for the uk.* hierarchy are taken are posted regularly to uk.net.news.announce or can be found at the following URL: The UKVoting web pages can be found at There is a five day discussion period after these results are posted to uk.net.news.announce.
