Hello,

My name is Simon Quigley, and I'm currently the Lubuntu Release Manager. I have been an Ubuntu Member since February 2016 (about a month before I turned 14 years old). I once held hats on the Ubuntu Membership Board, Ubuntu Developer Membership Board, Ubuntu Weekly Newsletter, Kubuntu Team, and a few others. In terms of upload rights, it looks like I became a MOTU at about August 2017, applying for Ubuntu Core Developer a year afterwards. Also worth noting, I have been a Debian Developer since November 2018.

I love Ubuntu, the community and development side, and would be honored to serve on the Ubuntu Technical Board.

Ask away!

Hi everyone,

We have received some applications for the new election of the Ubuntu Technical Board. A lot of great applications from very good candidates. In order to make a good decision in this selection, we would like to give the candidates the opportunity to introduce themselves here and to say a few words about their application and provide a few links to their work. Everyone will also have the opportunity to ask the candidates questions. We will start the election on 6 December. All five seats (besides Mark) will be filled.

Here is the list of candidates (by alphabetical order of surname):

- Sebastien Bacher
- Robie Basak
- Ben Collins
- Steve Langasek
- Lukas Märdian
- Alex Murray
- Simon Quigley
- Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre
- Łukasz Zemczak

If any questions arise, then the Ubuntu Community Council is available to help.

On behalf of the Ubuntu Community Council,
Torsten Franz

WE ARE STILL LOOKING FOR CANDIDATES TO JOIN THE UBUNTU TECHNICAL
BOARD!

The call remains open until NOVEMBER 27TH, 2022, at 23:59 UTC. This is
a bit longer than initially anticipated.

Are you interested or do you know of someone who you want to see in
this role? Please submit the nomination.

WHAT IS THE UBUNTU TECHNICAL BOARD?

The Ubuntu Technical Board is responsible for the technical direction
of Ubuntu. It makes decisions on package selection, packaging policy,
installation systems and processes, kernel, X server, display
management, library versions, and dependencies. The board works with
relevant teams to establish a consensus on the right path to take,
especially where diverse elements of Ubuntu cannot find consensus on
shared components. The current Technical Board is expiring at the end
of the year, and the Community Council would like to confirm a new
Technical Board, consisting of five people, who will serve for two
years. The eligibility requirements are:

WHO IS ELIGIBLE?

Everyone who meets the following criteria:

    * Be an Ubuntu Core Developer
    * Be available during typical meeting hours [see
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TechnicalBoardAgenda [1]]
    * Have insight into the Ubuntu Development process, architecture, and
technical culture

HOW DO YOU NOMINATE YOURSELF OR SOMEONE ELSE?

Send the Community Council an email (community-council AT
lists.ubuntu.com [2]). With your nomination. Note that you can
nominate yourself too!

HOW DOES THE ELECTION WORK?

The call remains open until November 27th, 2022, at 23:59 UTC. After
that, the Community Council will review the submissions, submit them
to Mark Shuttleworth for shortlisting, and proceed with a vote by the
Ubuntu Development team.
