Hello
All,
this
is an informational email about Jakarta EE elections that
will take place in September. The intention is to make all
eligible to run for the elections and/or vote aware ahead of
time, so we can finish the elections by the end of
September. No action is required at this point.
Eclipse
Foundation Working Group Charters identify the key
committees that drive the various facets of each Eclipse
Working Group for which there are annual elected positions
to be filled. In the case of theJakarta
EE Working Group Charter,
it indicates there are three committees each with elected
positions to represent each of the Enterprise Members,
Participant Members, and
Committer Members. Strategic Members each have
a representative appointed to these committees, and thus
Strategic member companies do not participate in this
election.
The
Eclipse Foundation plans to hold the 2022 Jakarta EE
elections on behalf of the working group
starting on September 6th with a view to have the
election complete prior to the end of September.
Please
note the following phases all elections follow:
-

The
exact timelines for each of the phases and detailed
instructions on what needs to be done will be announced in
the email on September 6th.
The
election process will follow the Eclipse “Single
Transferable Vote” method, as defined in theEclipse
Bylaws.
All
members are encouraged to consider nominating someone for
the positions, and self-nominations are more than welcome!
Nominations must be received to the general mailing list
indicating related Committee/Seat by required deadlines in
order to be considered.
Please wait for the official announcement details before
