PTL Elections
Who is eligible to Run: Existing Committers for that project
...
Special Considerations for the PTL position only: At any time throughout the year the majority of existing Committers can vote to call a new PTL election. This is to ensure that absentee or non-responsive PTLs are not allowed to remain in place.
Process:
Self Nomination Phase
The sitting PTL - WHETHER RUNNING OR NOT - is responsible for sending an email to the appropriate distribution list (using their project specific email tag if relevant) on or about the anniversary of the previous year's election, indicating that nominations for the PTL position are open. Individuals interested in running for the PTL position should reply-all indicating their intention to run. Candidates are encouraged to include a biography and statement of intent on why you would be a good person to hold this position.
...
Escalate to the TSC if: The sitting PTL does not initiate either the announcement or the poll, or if fewer than 50% +1 of the Committers vote
...
