I ask you Mark, and all of Postgres Advocacy, to please consider having a woman or other minority fill this spot, especially a Canadian from an underrepresented group. It's a wonderful opportunity, and the optics will be bad if you select a man when qualified minorities have shown interest. If no women or other minorities have shown interest, please let me know and I will re-submit my name for consideration. Thank you!
