If you have not nominated yourself yet, there is only one week to go! The deadline is Feb 2.

> # Who should apply?
> 
> Anyone who meets the following criteria should apply:
> 
> * Candidates should have enough bandwidth to review merge requests to `base` on a semi-frequent basis (~3-4 per month), and sustain this for their 3 years term in a healthy manner.
> * Candidates should be able to contribute opinions and analysis to issues raised by the community as a part of the CLC proposal process on a semi-frequent basis (~7 per month).
> * Candidates should be good communicators, and at least be able to articulate to the CLC team when they will be available vs. unavailable.
> * Candidates should be productive, and be able to follow through on merge requests and conversations to their completion in a diligent and timely manner.
> 
> We encourage any and all who satisfy these requirements to apply. Please note that we are not looking for the biggest galaxy brain in the room -- quite the opposite. We are looking for productive, motivated individuals who want to help support the ecosystem that we love. As such, we hope to build a broad sample of the community.
