Phil, Thanks for pulling this summary together. I think you've captured some of the key decision points from the survey.
For Option 1, I might propose a slightly different way of handling the voting to still strive toward the desired operator representation while advocating meritocracy: - Pick a TSC size (say 15) - Take the top 15 ranking individuals (one per company) from the voting - Those operators not represented in the top 15 are allowed to appoint a TSC representative for this cycle only. This would be a one-time increase in the size of the TSC above the desired size. The primary reason is to conduct a fully meritocratic vote for the top 15, giving the community a sense of elected leadership. The implication could be a larger than desired TSC for this cycle (maybe 20+) and maybe not a full 50% operator representation. The vote would also give a feeling for how many operators might be represented in a fully meritocractic TSC -- that way the TSC knows for the next cycle if any adjustments to TSC composition will be required to ensure adequate operator representation. Thoughts?

One big ranked vote conducted via CIVS Top ranked operators are identified (9 spots - one per operator company) Remaining positions taken by top ranking individuals - one per company Option 2 Each existing Platinum Member of ONAP circa Jan. 2018 invited to appoint a TSC rep. (19 Members ) * Causes issue for LFN Platinum Members that were not originally part of ONAP as of January 1st Option 3 Each existing Platinum Member of LFN invited to appoint a TSC rep. (27 Members) (adds ARM, Lenovo, NEC/Netcracker, Qualcomm, Samsung, Suse, Red Hat, Juniper) Fails the ~50% Operator goal , as well as desired size of TSC Please consider these options and provide your thoughts, questions, and/or alternatives to consider. We need to close on this topic with a vote by the end of June, so time is of the essence at this point. ---- * From previous experience, capping TSC membership to one person per company can cause the side-effect of company employees who would otherwise be very qualified for the position choose *not* to run against another, often more senior, person within their company. This can produce a sub-optimal result in TSC make-up.
