We are seeking nominations for candidates for election to the X.Org
Foundation Board of Directors. All X.Org Foundation members are eligible
for election to the board.
Nominations for the 2021 election are now open and will remain open
until Sunday, the 7th of March.
The Board consists of directors elected from the membership. Each year,
an election is held to bring the total number of directors to eight. The
four members receiving the highest vote totals will serve as directors
for two year terms.
The directors who received two year terms starting in 2020 were Eric
Anholt, Mark Filion, Keith Packard, and Harry Wentland. They will
continue to serve until their term ends in 2022. Current directors whose
term expires in 2021 are Samuel Iglesias Gonsálvez, Manasi D Navare,
Lyude Paul, and Daniel Vetter.
A director is expected to participate in the fortnightly IRC meeting to
discuss current business and to attend the annual meeting of the X.Org
Foundation, which will be held at a location determined in advance by
the Board of Directors.
A member may nominate themselves or any other member they feel is
qualified. Nominations should be sent to the Election Committee at
elections at x.org.
Nominees shall be required to be current members of the X.Org
Foundation, and submit a personal statement of up to 200 words that will
be provided to prospective voters. The collected statements, along with
the statement of contribution to the X.Org Foundation in the member's
account page on http://members.x.org, will be made available to all
voters to help them make their voting decisions.
Nominations must be received before the end of day on Sunday, the 7th of
March.
Membership applications or renewals and completed personal statements
