Hey there!

I'm Martin Jansen and this is my tumblelog. Most cool kids seem to have one these days. Do you?

The things I publish here are replicated on my other home page and there is more stuff there, too.

Candidature

Today I threw my name in the hat for the upcoming PEAR Group election. I have been thinking about whether to run for another legislature or not (I am a member of the current Group) ever since it became apparent that there is interest in the PEAR developers community to form a new organizational structure for the project. In the end I decided in favor of a candidature because I couldn’t come up with a really good reason why I should stop my involvement. A few months ago I would have most likely decided differently for various reasons, but these days the PEAR Threat Level is back to green for me.

Now let’s see what the outcome of the election will be. In any case it will be good for PEAR, which is important. If I don’t get enough votes, there is always CPAN. Or the Cheese Shop. Or raising sheep.
