Hello Everyone,
You may have already heard the exciting news that the OpenStack Board of Directors recently approved the User Committee (UC) bylaws and charter <https://governance.openstack.org/uc/reference/charter.html>. These remarkable changes will bring the first elected UC representatives in 2017 and expand the UC to 5 members! Voting for the 2017 UC members will be granted to the Active User Contributors (AUC). <https://governance.openstack.org/uc/reference/charter.html#active-user-contributors-auc> The current UC will continue to serve until the elections and continue with a 6-month seat. This initial election will run to determine the other two members. Candidates ranking 1st and 2nd place will get one-year seats. In the fall of 2017, elections will see the normal renewal of 3 seats for a one-year period. Open candidacy for the UC positions will be from January 30 - February 10, 05:59 UTC. Voting for the 2017 User Committee (UC) members will be open on February 13th and will remain open until February 17, 11:59 UTC. Additional details and the process for nomination can be found here <https://governance.openstack.org/uc/reference/uc-election-feb2017.html>. As a reminder, please see the community code of conduct ( http://www.openstack.org/legal/community-code-of-conduct/) Please let me, or anyone from the UC know if you have any questions, comments or concerns. Thank you, OpenStack User Committee Shilla, Edgar, Jonathan
