#12: Fedora Council Charter Draft: collect concerns for revisions in preparation for vote ------------------------+----------------------- Reporter: mattdm | Owner: mattdm Status: new | Priority: critical Component: Board Meta | Resolution: Keywords: | ------------------------+----------------------- Comment (by mattdm): Replying to [comment:16 inode0]: > I don't know how the outreach and building groups will select representatives from what I've read so far. The proposal does not call for committee selection. While FESCo naturally subsumes all of the distro/product building groups, FAmSCo is just an ambassador body. That is a bit uncharted. Thanks for highlighting it. We could ask for a special selection committee comprised of representatives from: Ambassadors, Marketing, Docs, Websites, and Ask Fedora? (Maybe also IRC Support SIG? Anything else?) FESCo could do a similar thing, although as you say it's already structured in a way that makes it a natural point as is. For the outreach side, do you think it's problematic to ask FAmSCo to organize that and be inclusive, even though it's bigger than the scope they've traditionally had? > Thus far I haven't heard what to me is a compelling reason to treat the two seats elected directly by the entire community differently. Part of the expressed responsibility of those seats will be to pursue specific goals advertised during the election process. What if those goals don't have a timetable that can be effectively achieved in one year? I don't see any reason to structurally prevent the community at large from saying this person has done good work toward those goals and we would like him/her to continue for another year. Perhaps the community would simply prefer continuity in its representation too. I'm not strongly stuck on this, and can be convinced that we should change it. Possibly some work on revitalizing the election process -- and focusing on those advertised goals as you mention -- can have the same effect. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/board/ticket/12#comment:17> board <https://fedorahosted.org/board> Fedora Project Board Public Tickets _______________________________________________ board-discuss mailing list board-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/board-discuss
