    [Replying publicly as requested by Lars]
    
    I would be happy to do the job, so you can consider me a candidate.
    
Thank you for stepping up Paul. 
As no-one else has done so, I suggest we can vote: a few committers are on PTO 
and then there is Thanksgiving.
So, we should allow for 2 weeks

If no-one objects, say by Monday, can I get one of you to reply to this thread 
and change the subject to something like: "[Vote] for Paul Durrant as Release 
Manager for Xen 4.14+"

Regards
Lars
