Kelduum Revaan, CEO of EVE University, one of the largest alliances in EVE Online, has been selected by players as a representative to the seventh Council of Stellar Management. As one of the 40 candidates, Kelduum received 3,163 votes, coming in sixth place, out of 59,109 total votes cast.
The Council of Stellar Management (CSM) is a player-elected council who represent the views of the members of the EVE Online community to Crowd Control Productions (CCP), the providers of EVE Online. The CSM communicates with CCP through at least two three-day summits held each term in CCP’s headquarters in Reykjavik, Iceland, and through dedicated forums and online conferences.
“I am very pleased to have been elected to the CSM and would like to thank all those who voted for me,” Kelduum said. “I’m looking forward to taking my seat on the council and will do my best to ensure that all EVE players are represented fairly.”
The CSM 7 term will begin on April 4th, and last into early 2013. The next CSM will be elected before Fanfest 2013, scheduled for April 25-27, 2013.

Congratulations Kelduum!
Although my stay in EvE University was short, today it looks like it was a life time. I learned a lot, and actions by its members inspire me up to this date.
When I first read about the candidates, I found that most of Kelduum’s ideas where also my own, and it is a real pleasure to see someone who has given so much to this universe also having an opportunity to speak for one of the most significant corporations in the game.
