The AsciiDoc Working Group Charter identifies the Steering committee as a key governing body to drive various aspects of the working group for which there are elected positions to be filled..
While the Partner Members are appointed, this election will take place for the three Committer Member Seats.
Through this email, we are announcing the Eclipse Foundation will hold elections on behalf of the working group for the Committer Member Representatives, using the proposed timetable listed below:
Committer Members are those who are engaged in projects under the purview of the working group). Committers may be considered members by virtue of either a) being employed by a working group corporate member, or b) an individual committer who has executed the AsciiDoc Working Group’s Individual Participation Agreement. If you are interested but unsure if you are a committer member, please reach out to us.
All Committer members are encouraged to consider nominating and self-nominations are also more than welcome!
