Due to a late nomination, after the 29 May deadline noted above (even
accounting for time zones), Robert Scheck has been removed from
consideration for FESCo. Robert is a valued member of the Fedora
community. I have no doubt he would serve well on FESCo, and hope he
will consider running again in the next election cycle.
