I will repost the article here and on the forums for people having issues.

    * It’s that time again, to give and receive presents, and to push
the boundaries of what defines procrastination. That is why some of
the trusted users (td123 & kaitocracy) are willing to listen to the
community for package nominations to the [community] repo.

    * To vote, post the package names, and a brief explanation of why
they should be included, to either the ML [1] or bbs [2]. Only
comments made on the ML thread or BBS thread will be considered. To
appease Xyne, we will only accept nominations on the ML that do not
top-post. Make sure that the packages you nominate follow the
guidelines [3]. We will consider packages which have the most
nominations, but that will not be the definitive criterion.

    * At least 1 package will be added, but expect more to get
included. You will be able to nominate packages until December 23rd at
23:59:59 UTC time. The packages that have been accepted will be
announced sometime before December 24th 23:59:59 UTC, the day before
Christmas.
