I fell for that: On Feb 7, I went to members.x.org to check my status, it said I was registered for "2023-2024" and there was no button to renew, so I closed the page confident that I was a member for 2024. After all, it said 2024. This was a mistake I realised only after being personally poked to renew. I know for sure of one other person falling for the same. Now, the members page for this year says "Application for the period: 02/2024-02/2025". Thanks to the people adding the month to reduce confusion.

Re: 2024 X.Org Foundation Membership deadline for voting in the election
This is a reminder that the membership renewal period ends in 2 days, and elections will start after that. Please register as an X.Org Foundation member to be able to vote in the upcoming elections. Thanks! -Ricardo Garcia, on behalf of the X.Org elections committee.
