This message serves as a call for nominations for candidates to serve as chairs of the afs3-standardization group. Please read on for details on how the process will work and how to register your nomination(s).
Since this group has yet to formally adopt a permanent charter, I am assuming that we are still operating under the process described in draft-wilkinson-afs3-standardisation-00.txt. The elections process is described in section 2.2.2 of that document. The current chairs are Michael Meffie and myself; my term ends this year, and Mike's a year from now. The normal process calls for the existing chairs, including the outgoing chair, to act as vote-takers. Consistent with the constraints described in section 2.2.2, this election will proceed along the following timeline: Jul 1 Eligibility Cutoff (see below) Aug 15 Call for nominations Aug 30 Nominations close - 23:59 UTC Sep 4 Call for votes Sep 18 Voting closes - 23:59 UTC Sep 25 Results announced Oct 1 New chair takes office Eligibility to vote is determined by those who are subscribed to, or have posted to, the standardisation group during the time period from the 1st of June to the 1st July of the appropriate year. There were no new subscriptions and no posts from non-subscribers during June. However, one subscriber, [email protected], unsubscribed after the end of June. Since Bill was subscribed during June, he is eligible to vote, even though he does not appear on the current list of subscribers. Otherwise, the list of eligible voters, reproduced below, is the same as the current list of subscribers. Note that while some voters may be listed with multiple email addresses, the rule is that each person gets one vote, no matter how many addresses are subscribed. Additionally, only people may vote; archive and list exploder addresses do not get a vote. Any subscriber to this list may view the current list of subscribers by entering their email address and list password at the bottom of <http://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/afs3-standardization> Anyone at all may view the list of posts made during June by visiting <http://lists.openafs.org/pipermail/afs3-standardization/2013-June/> Nominations and seconds should be sent to the afs3-standardization mailing list and also directly to Michael and myself. Any consenting individual may be nominated, but shall be both proposed and seconded by eligible voters. Self-nomination is not permitted. As shown in the above timeline, nominations are open for a period of 15 days from today, ending at 23:59 EDT on August 30, 2013 (03:59 UTC on August 31, 2013). Nominations received after that time will not be considered. -- Jeffrey T.
