[Ewa Jodlowska]

Hi!

Just giving you all a heads up that the Python Developers Survey will be
wrapping up in the coming week.

   https://surveys.jetbrains.com/s3/python-developers-survey-2021

The more diverse our response base is, the better so help us share the link

10-15 minutes to fill out.

[PSF-Community] PSF 2021 Board Elections: Reminder to vote!

[Ewa Jodlowska]

Hi everyone!

If you became an eligible voting member[1] by May 31, 2021 you have
received a ballot from no-re...@mail.heliosvoting.org.

Deadline to vote is June 17, 2021 AoE.

Check your spam folder, please. Several of us have found it in spam. We can
re-send the ballot if you cannot find it. Email us at
psf-elect...@python.org.

Why should you vote?

   1.

   Voting is one of the benefits members[1] receive after signing up. *It
   is also a very impactful benefit to exercise*. The members of the board
   get to vote and make decisions on behalf of the PSF community and also help
   guide the PSF’s future. Here’s a list of candidates
   

   .
   2.

   Electronic votes require us to reach a quorum. Quoted from our bylaws:

   “a quorum shall be reached as soon as one-third (1/3) of the members
   entitled to vote (the voting members) have cast their vote. If the voting
   period ends before a quorum is reached, the vote is declared void.”


If you have any questions or concerns, don’t hesitate to email me ewa at
python dot org.

Hi Dusan -

Good question so I will reply-all in case anyone else has that question.

There are no prerequisites to run for the PSF board. It certainly doesn't
hurt to be a PSF member in some capacity though!

The nomination form will open May 6th and will be accessible via
https://www.python.org/nominations/elections/.

[PSF-Community] Python Developers Survey 2018 Results

[Ewa Jodlowska]

Hi Pythonistas!

We are excited to share with you the results of the Python Developers
Survey 2018!

In the fall of 2018, over *twenty thousand developers* from more than 150
different countries participated to help us map out an accurate landscape
of the Python community:

View the results of Python Developers Survey 2018:
https://www.jetbrains.com/research/python-developers-survey-2018/!

We hope the survey results will help you better understand the current
state of the Python developer community, see the big picture, and answer
some of your potential questions. Find out about the most popular types of
Python development, trending frameworks, libraries and tools, additional
languages used together with Python, adoption rates for different Python
versions, and gain many other insights into the world of Python.

We couldn’t include all the potential findings in the report without making
it too long. If you have specific questions that are unanswered, send them
to us (surv...@python.org) and we’ll dig into the data for an answer. If
you want to check out the data yourself, here's the link to the raw data (
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1giaGOhJYWIXfZzy-zxmbrUIOB9Y_ROdu).

Huge thanks to all the participants of the survey and to the amazing team
at PSF and JetBrains, which worked hard to make this happen!

Thanks,

Ewa

[PSF-Community] 2018 Python Developer Survey

[Ewa Jodlowska]

Hi PSF members -

As some of you may have seen, the 2018 Python Developer Survey is
available. If you haven't taken the survey yet, please do so soon!
Additionally, we'd appreciate any assistance you all can provide with
sharing the survey with your local Python groups, schools, work colleagues,
etc. We will keep the survey open through October 26th, 2018.

https://surveys.jetbrains.com/s3/c4-python-developers-survey-2018

We’re counting on your help to better understand how different Python
developers use Python and related frameworks, tools, and technologies. We
also hope you'll enjoy going through the questions.

The survey is organized in partnership between the Python Software
Foundation and JetBrains. Together we will publish the aggregated results.
We will randomly choose and announce 100 winners to receive a Python
Surprise Gift Pack (must complete the full survey to qualify).

Thank you,

work on a policy for voting procedures. Once we have that in place, Work
Group members will review nominations, discuss them, and vote on them.

If you are interested in taking part, please send an email to
psf-fel...@python.org introducing yourself. You must be a PSF Fellow Member
to be in this Work Group.

[PSF-Community] PSF Fellow Nomination Process & Fellow Working Group

[Ewa Jodlowska]

Dear members,

We have started to address the lack of process for voting in new PSF Fellow
members. Currently, when someone is nominated, the nomination can only come
from a current fellow or from a designated work group. Furthermore, it is
required that the approval be done by 2/3 of the eligible voters. To make
this a more inclusive process and to make it a labor-saving process, the
board would like to propose the following changes to the bylaws (
https://www.python.org/psf/bylaws/):

   1. Adjust Section 4.9 of the bylaws to read:
  - To be eligible for membership as a Fellow, a member must be
  nominated by a member *[changed fellow to member]* of the corporation
  or a specially chartered Working Group, which nomination should be based
  upon certain criteria to be established by the Board of
Directors and which
  criteria shall be designed to emphasize extraordinary contributions.
   2. Adjust Section 4.9 of the bylaws to read:
  - Following such nomination, approval of chartered Working Group
  voting members shall be required in order for a member to become
a Fellow.
  - *changed from:* Following such nomination, approval of two-thirds
  (2/3) of the members entitled to vote shall be required in order for a
  member to become a Fellow.

We wanted to inform the PSF membership of these proposed changes before we
send them to the Bylaws Working Group.


We have also suggested a starting point for the to-be chartered Working
Group (https://wiki.python.org/psf/FellowWG) with the following policies
(not to be included in bylaws). These can be discussed more within the
group before the Working Group charter is approved by the board:

   - Up to 15 voting WG members and 5 non-voting members (could be board of
   directors who want to have oversight or a member who is interested in the
   process but does not want to commit to voting). To promote a diverse
   membership, the Working Group will aim to pick membership by
   first-come-first-serve and allow up to 3 people from one geographic region
   (for ex Africa,Asia,Central America, Eastern Europe, European Union, Middle
   East, North America, Oceania, South America, The Caribbean).
   - All voting WG members must also be PSF Fellow Members
   - 2/3 of the votes placed must be "aye" in order to approve the Fellow
   nomination
   - Every year after the new board is elected, we will ask WG voting
   members who is interested in continuing and who would like to opt out of
   the working group.
   - Voting WG members that do not vote in three consecutive votes will be
   asked to leave the WG so we can substitute in new member.

If any current fellows would like to participate in the Fellow Working
Group, please let me know. We currently have three members: myself, Naomi
Ceder, and Kushal Das. Once we get more members, we will together work on a
charter.
