Each group participating in the election will attempt to host two Town Hall forums on IRC. Each will last one hour, or less if there are no further questions.
No Town Halls are being held this time. Instead we're running campaign and part of it are [http://communityblog.fedoraproject.org/ Community Blog] interviews. It's hard to schedule Town Halls (different schedules, timezones etc.) and it prolongs elections itself.
