The OpenStack community is called to elect the Project Technical Leads and two seats of the Project Policy Board. The nominations process is now officially closed and voting can start: all entitled to vote will receive a personal message via email on February 28 and have time until March 3 11:59 PST to vote. The email message will go to the email address included in the Authors file and the one provided during the registration for PPB votes. The official list of nominees (in random order) is the following: NOVA Project Technical Lead (1 position) Vish Ishaya http://wiki.openstack.org/Governance/ElectionsSpring2012/Vishvananda_Ishaya Soren Hansen http://wiki.openstack.org/Governance/ElectionsSpring2012/Soren_Hansen KEYSTONE Project Technical Lead (1 position) Andy Smith (termie) http://wiki.openstack.org/Governance/ElectionsSpring2012/Andy_Smith Joe Heck http://wiki.openstack.org/Governance/ElectionsSpring2012/Joe_Heck HORIZON Project Technical Lead (1 position) Jake Dahn http://wiki.openstack.org/Governance/ElectionsSpring2012/Jake_Dahn Devin Carlen SWIFT Project Technical Lead (1 position) John Dickinson http://wiki.openstack.org/Governance/ElectionsSpring2012/John_Dickinson GLANCE Project Technical Lead (1 position) Eoghan Glynn http://wiki.openstack.org/Governance/ElectionsSpring2012/Eoghan_Glynn Brian Waldon http://wiki.openstack.org/Governance/ElectionsSpring2012/Brian_Waldon PROJECT POLICY BOARD (2 positions) Thierry Carrez http://wiki.openstack.org/Governance/ElectionsSpring2012/Thierry_Carrez Joe Heck http://wiki.openstack.org/Governance/ElectionsSpring2012/Joe_Heck Mark McLoughlin http://wiki.openstack.org/Governance/ElectionsSpring2012/Mark_McLoughlin Christopher MacGown http://wiki.openstack.org/Governance/ElectionsSpring2012/Christopher_MacGown Soren Hansen http://wiki.openstack.org/Governance/ElectionsSpring2012/Soren_Hansen Brian Waldon http://wiki.openstack.org/Governance/ElectionsSpring2012/Brian_Waldon Andrew Clay Shafer http://wiki.openstack.org/Governance/ElectionsSpring2012/Andrew_Clay_Shafer Monty Taylor http://wiki.openstack.org/Governance/ElectionsSpring2012/Monty_Taylor Joe Arnold Brian Lamar Devin Carlen Jay Pipes Voting process Like previous OpenStack Governance Elections, we will use the Condorcet Internet Voting Service from Cornell University, http://www.cs.cornell.edu/andru/civs.html. This tool uses the Condorcet method of voting which invokes ranking the nominees instead of just selecting one choice. More information on this methodology is at http://www.cs.cornell.edu/w8/~andru/civs/rp.html. All registered voters will receive an email with a unique link allowing them to privately vote. Please note that the voting system is run using private polls with restricted access to ensure voter authenticity; however all results will be made public once the election ends. Voter anonymity is guaranteed. The result’s ranking will be evaluated using Schulze (also known as Beatpath or CSSD) completion rule. If an individual should happen to be elected as both a PTL and General Member of the PPB, then they will take their PTL seat only and the elected General Member seat will go to the next highest vote getter in the most recent election. Thanks for participating in this essential process. The election committee is made of Stefano Maffulli, Lloyd Dewolf and Dave Nielsen. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openstack Post to : openstack@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openstack More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
