[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The nomination period for FAmSCo (Fedora Ambassador Steering Committee), FESCo (Fedora Engineering Steering Committee), and the Fedora Board is now open, and will close on November 13, 2012, at 23:59:59 UTC.

This election cycle will fill the following seats for a one-year period:
* Fedora Board: 2 elected seats, as well as 2 appointed seats
* FESCo (Fedora Engineering Steering Committee): 4 elected seats
* FAmSCo (Fedora Ambassadors Steering Committee): 3 elected seats

Full information about the elections, including the elections schedule, and links to where one may nominate, can be seen here:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Elections

Running concurrently with the nomination period (and, hence, closing at the end of the nomination period), the elections questionnaire is also open for adding questions which will be posed to candidates. Following the closing of the questionnaire, candidates will be asked to answer questions relevant to the position for which they are seeking election.

Questions may be added here, and, again, will also close on November 13, 2012:

As noted above, there are 2 seats on the Fedora Board that will be appointed in this cycle, and I'm pleased as can be to announce that Major Hayden as the first of these appointments. I'm sure that many of you know Major from IRC (where you may know of him as rackerhacker), or perhaps from his blog posts about security or OpenStack, or from the Fedora Cloud SIG. He's enthusiastic, a fountain of knowledge, passionate about Fedora, and an all-around awesome guy, and I'm certain that he'll be able to bring some unique perspectives to the Board. Welcome, Major!

Major will be taking the seat previously occupied by Toshio Kuratomi (aka: abadger1999). Toshio has served two years in his appointed seat on the Fedora Board, and I am incredibly grateful to him for his efforts, dedication, and commitment to the Board, and Fedora in general. You are a fantastic role model and contributor - thank you, Toshio! :)

Further details regarding each body's election follows below. I encourage everyone to consider running for an elected seat if they have the interest and desire to do so, and to encourage others that they feel would be ideal representatives for particular Fedora bodies.

Cheers!
