+Greetings my OpenStack family!
+
+I realize we are presently in a stressful time. That each of us are
+worrying, and that many of us are struggling. "Normalizing", and ultimately
+accepting the things we cannot control is a vital step forward in our
+personal and community growth. Finding a path forward is critical in
+this time. Not just as humans in a pandemic, but as also community
+members in a project. The vital aspect is continuous across both contexts:
+We cannot do it alone, We must work together!
+
+I too have strengths and weaknesses that I am all too well aware of,
+and there truly is nothing more re-assuring than those around you
+encouraging you to continue to support them. For we all need
+sturdy foundations to take the steps forward. To build the next layer!
+To continue the journey we are on.
+
+As such, I hereby announce my candidacy for the role of Project Team Leader
+for the Ironic project during the Victoria cycle. That is if you will have me.
+
+I foresee the upcoming cycle as a time when we will need to be there to
+support our community and users.
+
+This may take the form of advanced features, lending an occasional ear,
+or going that extra mile to help each other.
+
+And if we need a distraction, I believe we have have some difficult problems
+yet to solve which can have a major impact in not just our code,
+but the world at large. While not an exhaustive list of items, it is still
+an impactful list of work we have been discussing and seek to add into
+Ironic moving forward.
+
+* Multi-tenancy, while underway, opens the world to new possibilities and
+  co-ordination of hardware resources with-in an organization.
+
+* Persistent Agents allowing for faster re-provision of deployments on
+  the edge and where the networking is in a fixed configuration.
+
+* TLS for Agent Communication to help ensure the nodes on the edge remain
+  secure.
+
+* kexec could potentially save significant amounts of time between steps
+  of deployment, and enable operators with larger memory footprints to save
+  precious time of a Power-on-Self-Test.
+
+* Attestation system integration so we can improve the odds of identifying a
+  machine with modified firmware and prevent it from moving through the
+  hardware life-cycle as a result.
+
+* Enhancement of power management, so operators can avoid having to wait
+  for the Power-on-Self-Test, and maybe even power some of those machines off.
+
+Onward, together! For I'm fairly sure we've not completely taken over the
+world... yet.
