I hereby nominate myself
– Markus Spiekermann – for the open Committer Member seat in
Steering Committee & Technical Advisory Committee. Due
to my involvement in founding the EDWG and my Committer role
within the Eclipse Dataspace Components (EDC) and Dataspace
TCK project I am already familiar with the working groups
work and would love to support the further progress of the
group’s charter and reaching all objectives.
BR,
Markus
The
Eclipse
Dataspace Working Group charter identifies the four committees i.e.
Steering Committee, Specification Committee, Marketing &
Brand Committee, and Technical Advisory Committee; as the
governing bodies to drive various aspects of the working
group for which there are elected positions to be filled.
At this time, the Steering and Specification
are fully operational. The Steering Committee is also
fulfilling the duties of Technical Advisory Committee while
the Marketing & Brand Committee is on hold for 2024.
While the Strategic Members are entitled to a
seat on all the four committees, the elections are to be
held for one Participant Member and one Committer Member
seat for each operational committee. At this time, there are
no Participant Members, and therefore,
the elections are to be held for Committer Member
Representatives.
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 Dataspace 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!
