As I've stated in the forums [1], I don't think that picking somebody that was 
not elected for the chair is a good practice. If you have found that the way 
elections were conducted did not produce a good result, maybe you should at 
least change your project description [2]:

"Gentoo User Representatives (userreps) form part of Gentoo User Relations 
(userrel) and are elected each year by Gentoo users to represent them to the 
development community."

Not that I have something against djay-il, it's just that I don't like the way 
this whole situation is being handled.
