Re: [sw360-dev] [technology-pmc] Reminder to vote on the Committer Election for Katharina Ettinger on Eclipse SW360
Dear Wayne,

I understand your concerns regarding Katharina's documented contributions to the SW360 project. While some of her work may not be directly reflected in public repositories due to permission limitations, she has played a crucial role in driving the project forward.

Katharina has been a dedicated project manager, chairing weekly developer calls and actively shaping the project's vision. Here are some specific examples of her contributions:

These examples demonstrate Katharina's commitment to the project's vision and progress, even with limitations due to her access level. Granting her committer status will not only streamline her workflow but also ensure her valuable contributions are transparent and seamlessly integrated into the project's public repositories.

In hindsight, I acknowledge that providing these specific examples in the initial election proposal would have been beneficial. I apologize for any confusion and will ensure all future proposals are more comprehensive.
We believe that Katharina's contributions, combined with her commitment to open collaboration, make her a valuable addition to the committer team.

With best regards,
Gaurav Mishra

Please read through the guidance provided in the Eclipse Project Handbook.


Embracing the open source rules of engagement: open, transparent, meritocratic (as defined in the EDP) is an important part of being a modern OSS project. These fundamental principles are not to be sidestepped for expediency.

There are multiple public channels by which the candidate could have contributed the diagram and led discussions regarding it and the plan. Please encourage the candidate to engage in an open and transparent manner and thereby demonstrate merit for the privileges and responsibilities that come with committer status.

The project board is created and maintained outside the SW360 project repository by Katharina.

Since only members can actively create and manipulate Github projects, Kouki Hama picked the work from Kaharina and updated on her behalf.

Katharina has been working on SW360 behalf as project manager, through her Siemens employee for years. Even more time than some of us at the core devs. 
Just we are now pushing the project to be in shape on modern oss that the need to onboard her was required.

So i vouch for her as effective member of SW360

AFAICT, the cited project board shows no evidence that it was assembled by the candidate. I do see some evidence of the candidate's activities in GitHub over the years, including at least one pull request and a small number of GitHub discussions. Are any of these worth citing as a public demonstration of contribution to the project? I see a mention in the project's Slack workspace that the project is based on a diagram provided by the candidate, but the candidate's contribution itself is not shown. AFAICT, the candidate has not engaged in the Slack workspace. I see the candidate listed as the chair for a single meeting in 2022; have there been other community meetings?

AFAICT, the candidate has had an affiliation with the project for two years, but has left very little public record of interaction with the project.

Is there some additional public record of contribution that you can cite?

Can you speak to the timing? Why now? AFAICT, the project board based on the candidate's contribution was created more than a month ago.
