+I would like to submit my candidacy as PTL of OpenStack-Helm for the Train
+cycle.
+
+I've been lucky enough to be involved with OpenStack-Helm project since its'
+inception. From the project's early days as a PoC, through to seeing production
+deployments flourish, it has been an honor to work alongside the amazing
+contributors we have had. Collectively we have seen and enabled OpenStack-Helm
+to work in a multitude of configurations and scale from medium deployments
+running traditional workloads to 5G packet cores, with users ranging from
+academia, telco and enterprise, right through to home labs. Moving forward there
+is a huge amount we need to do within OpenStack-Helm, to capitalize on the work
+we have done and both increase and diversify our community presence.
+
+As PTL in support of the four opens, my primary goal for the "Train" cycle would
+be to grow the core review team, to accelerate our development cadence towards
+stable releases and improve the feedback we give to new contributors to the
+project.
+
+Regardless of the outcome, I'm excited to continue contributing to
+OpenStack-Helm.
+
+Regards,
+
+Pete Birley
