[mark.reinhold at oracle.com]

The nomination period ended yesterday at 16:00 UTC.

We have two candidates: Andrew Haley (Red Hat) and Doug Lea
(SUNY Oswego).  Their candidate statements are available on
the election page: http://openjdk.java.net/poll/gb/2012/ .

Voting will start next Monday, 19 March, and run for two weeks.
(It was originally planned to start today, but the logistics
didn't quite work out.)  Detailed information on how to vote
will be available shortly.
