| [microprofile-wg] MicroProfile Working Group Steering Committee - Committer Member Election - Call for Nominations |
The MicroProfile Working Group identifies its Steering Committee as a key governing body to drive various aspects of the working group for which there is an elected position to be filled.
While the Corporate Members are appointed to the Steering Committee, the elected position is to represent Committer members.
Through this email, we are announcing the Foundation will hold this election on behalf of the working group using the proposed timetable listed below:
Election Schedule:
September 3 - 13: Call for Nominations
September 17: Announce Candidates Standing
September 19 - 27: Ballots Created/Sent (Voting Period)
October 1: Announce Elected Candidate
By way of reminder, 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. All committer members are encouraged to consider nominating and self-nominations are also more than welcome! If you are interested in being nominated but unsure if you are eligible, please reach out to us. You can also find more information about being a Committer Member here.
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 email to those eligible to vote. The election process will follow the Eclipse “Single Transferable Vote” method, as defined in the Eclipse Bylaws. The winning candidate 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,
