As per this consensus, we'll proceed until the previously

others to use.
I'm a bit torn here, showing my indecisive side quite clearly:
* We have not enough candidates for an election (3 nominations, 3 seats,
so voting isn't useful)
* To fill up the nominations is feeling very rushed, with four hours
left to go
* People on this project are not fully aware of the election
* Serious people have put up their names for nomination, and they
deserve respect and a fair/useful election
* Putting off until 24 Dec. or later for elections really means we want
to wait until the New Year, which is _very_far_off_ our schedule of
"just after the release." Oops.
* FAMSCo seems ready to go and chomping at the bit
* If we postpone we risk losing the momentum we have
* Someone is potentially upset with the outcome no matter what the
decision
Oops, sorry, the last point is just my "place of always being stuck" as
a leader. :)
