Summary: Drones and Model Aircraft Stack Exchange will begin the nomination stage for a special election on May 18 to bring in your three inaugural pro-tem moderators.

For full details of the process, see the announcement on Meta Stack Exchange. The timeline:

• Starting on May 18, users can nominate themselves. Users can also ask questions on meta for potential moderators to answer. (Use the discussion and election tags.)

• On May 25, if there are four or more candidates, we'll run an election. If not, I'll simply appoint the candidates. (There's a small chance we'll need to remove a nomination, but I doubt that will come up.)

• If there is an election, I'll announce the results on meta on June 2.

If you have any questions about the process, please stick them in an answer here.
