In connection with the moderator elections, we will be holding a Town Hall Chat session with the candidates. This will be an opportunity for members of the community to pose questions to the candidates on the topic of moderation. Participation is completely voluntary. I am working with the candidates to find a time that allows the most participation.

The Town Hall Chat took place Tuesday the 25th at 11pm UTC, or 6pm EST.

Here are the details so far:

• I have coordinated with the candidates and believe that we may just have all candidates involved. Yay! I would like to schedule this towards the beginning of the election phase. As of now, it does not look like Server Fault will have a primary stage, so I am looking at the 25th-27th. As soon as I coordinate with the existing moderators and candidates to find a best fit based on availability, I will edit this post with details on the "when".
• The Town Hall Chat will be a one-hour event using our chat platform. You can register for the event here.
• You must have 20 rep on Server Fault to speak in the chat room.
• The format will be an open discussion. Users are encouraged to pose questions to the candidate regarding their thoughts on moderation.
• After the chat session, the transcript of the event will be permanently linked here.
