| [sdv-wg] SDV Working Group Interim Election Announcement - Steering and Technical Advisory Committees - Participant Member Seat |
Dear All,
The SDV Steering and Technical Advisory Committees do valuable work on behalf of the Working Group. While these committees are led by the Strategic members of the working group, the governance structure provides for representation of individuals from the Participant membership class. Recently, one of those elected seats became vacant for both committees. The Steering Committee has requested the Eclipse Foundation call an election to fill the seat until the next scheduled annual election is called for the working group in March 2025.
Please note the following important information:
Nomination Eligibility Participant Members All individuals who are employed by an organization that is a Participant member of the working group may stand for election. The current Participant Members of the SDV Working Group can be viewed here. Please indicate whether you are putting your name forward for the Steering or Technical Advisory Committee or both. Also note that there can be one candidate for a Participant member organization.
Election Schedule:
October 2 - 9 : Call for Nominations
October 14: Announce Candidates Standing
October 15 - 21: Ballots Distributed (Voting Period)
October 23: Announce Election Results
Nominations must be sent to this mailing list indicating related Committee/Seat. When the nomination period is closed, we will inform the working group of the confirmed candidates providing a short bio for each along with their position statement. At that point, we will distribute ballots via a third party system via email to those eligible to vote. The election process will follow the Eclipse “Single Transferable Vote” method, as defined in the Eclipse Bylaws. The elected candidates will be announced on this mailing list following the close of the election. Self nominations are more than welcome!
Please let us know if you have any questions. Nominations are now open!.
Best Regards,
Zahra
