Re: [IAEP] [Systems] 2017-2019 Sugar Labs Oversight Board Election - Stage I Call for candidates #1

2017-08-15 Thread Avni Khatri 
Could we add to the Election wiki, which 4 SLOB members' terms are
expiring? I don't see that here:

   - https://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_Labs/Governance/Elections_2017 or
   here:
   - https://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Oversight_Board

Thanks!

2017-08-15 Thread James Cameron 
Indeed, my recommendation to members is to elect people who can edit
the Wiki, but I'm a technocrat at heart, and have a bias toward action
rather than talk.  ;-)

https://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Special:RecentChanges is very useful to
see who has been editing the Wiki.

A follow-up question; when does the members list close for this
election?

2017-08-15 Thread Laura Vargas 
James,

Being the Sugar Labs wiki, Sugar Lab's main communication and collaboration
platform *it requires continuous Oversight Board member's editing.*

Ideal board members candidates will have (or will be willing to gain in the
short term)  the necessary
skills for editing the Sugar Labs wiki platform.

To request a Sugar Labs wiki account, candidates please submit a preferred
user name and an email address to:

   - *systems @ lists dot sugarlabs dot org*.

Here is the complete Wiki Guide:
https://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Wiki_Team/Guide

Here is the link for the specific case of adding and Entry:
https://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Wiki_Team/Guide/Editing_Pages

All community members at the IAEP mailing list are called to provide
support to candidates that could require assistance at any step with their
wiki entry editing process.

Warm regards,

Laura V

Since there are many people who can't seem to edit the Wiki, and I
don't think that should be a barrier to being a candidate, I offer to
edit it for them if they post their submission as a public reply to
the mailing list.  Just say so in your mail.  ;-)
