One small question: Should people that are on the Fedora Project Board also be allowed in FESCO? I personally don't have an issue with that, but at first glance that would seem to be largely pointless. And as a side question, what role does FESCO have in conjunction with the Project Board, if any? > - How is the Chair elected? > We have two options here afaics: > -- the new FESCo elects a (new) chair > -- the one with most votes in the election is nominated as FESCo-Chair; > if he does not want to do the job the one with the seconds most votes > gets the job offered, .... I think election of the chair by the FESCO members seems the way to go. Whether or not that will work out, who knows. josh -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
