Phinnaeus Gage is an excellent choice.
If he is successful then I would expect to see the BF after BFL like a terrier onto a bone!

Detective Phinn, you've been serving the community for quite some time now...are you interested in running?

I wonder how many people nominate Trendon Shavers.
Or Pinkie Pie. I couldn't say it before, but now that she's a young adult, I wouldn't mind sniffer her tail.

I'm not a fan of democracy, and this position isn't particularly important, but this election should be pretty interesting. It'll be the first big election in the Bitcoin ecosystem. There should be a lot of nice drama. 
Has anyone announced their candidacy yet? Who do you guys think will run/win?
- gmaxwell says that he will not run
- Erik Voorhees would stand a good chance if he's interested
- Luke-Jr?
- jgarzik?
- Mike Hearn?
- casascius?

I only see one person who shouldn't be on that list. Then again, maybe I'm just having a Sr. moment.
Anybody here have an interest in representing the general members of the Bitcoin Foundation? I'm willing to nominate any qualified person who could bring new skills and energy to the board.
Note, you don't have to be a member to run (but if you win, it would be rather awkward if you didn't want to join!).
Here's the current board composition:
