+Hi All,
+
+
+I'd like to announce my candidacy to continue the PTL role for Storlets project in
+the Xena cycle.
+
+Because we currently don't have very active development in Storlets project,
+I'll propose we mainly focus on the following two items during the next cycle.
+ - Improve stability of our code
+ - Keep compatibility with the latest items
+  - Latest Swift
+  - Latest Ubuntu LTS 
+
+In addition, I'll initiate some discussion about our future release and 
+management model, considering decreasing resources for reviews and developments.
+
+Thank you for your consideration.
+
+Thank you,
+Takashi
