[Foundation-l] Steward elections

Mon Nov 12 19:22:52 UTC 2007

This sounds like a rather vague rule to me.
I dont consider nomination, but i'm most regularly activbe on 3 projects. I
dont consider anyone  especially as my home project.
How should i choose between them?\

Wouldnt is be better to change the rule into something like: on all projects
where the steward is active more than once a day on average?
