Hello candidates,

as a non-DD I have no (official) rights to vote on the DPL position.

It is therefore very important for me to evaluate alternative ways of
influencing Debian to my liking and my (even though limited) life-experience
tells me that while I got a life for free, everything else can be brought
(and at times even must be bought if you want it your way).


So my simple question is: What is your price?


Lucas already answered this question partly, still a more in-depth
response would be appreciated, so this question goes indeed to all.

Thanks to all of you for running for this important position,
answering all these questions and good luck in the upcoming vote!


Best regards

I can sell you my vote for 18 kg of milk chocolate.

I am *disgusted* to see people selling votes, for mere milk chocolate.

Now, if it had been proper dark chocolate... of course we'd need to
negotiate a minimum of quality standards. I still have 2kg of dark
chocolate from Easter last year that's so bad I have a hard time using
it. And then we're approaching summer, chocolate doesn't preserve well
through the hot season. Perhaps if sent in installments? But then who
guarantees it'll keep coming after the vote?

Proving to the buyer what was voted should be easy with the current
system, though.


Ciao,

Enrico
