We are collecting a list of questions, which will be given to each candidate to answer before voting period begins as part of campaign in Fedora Magazine. Please see the [[Elections/Questionnaire|January 2015 Elections Questionnaire]] and add your own. Note: not all questions will be posed to the candidates. Questions may be edited. Candidates may choose to answer (or not) as they see fit.


Each group participating in the election will host at least one Town Hall on IRC.  Each will last one hour, or less if there are no further questions.

==== How to Join ====
No Town Halls are being held this time. Instead we're running campaign and part of it are Fedora Magazine interviews. It's hard to schedule Town Halls (different schedules, timezones etc.) and it prolongs elections itself.


* Nominees should join #fedora-townhall on FreeNode (irc.freenode.net).  Only nominees and a moderator may speak in this channel.
