Four members - Ćukasz Zemczak, Thomas Ward, Dan Streetman and Robie Basak - have completed their two year terms on the DMB. Dan has resigned his seat, and the other three are continuing on a temporary extension to help the DMB continue operating pending an election. This is a call for nominations to fill their four seats.
The DMB is responsible for reviewing and approving new Ubuntu developers [1]. Candidates must be Ubuntu Core Developers or MOTU, and should be well qualified to evaluate prospective Ubuntu developers and decide when to entrust them with developer privileges or to grant them Ubuntu membership status. Candidates must expect to be able to attend the majority of DMB meetings. Currently these take place on IRC, are scheduled on alternate Mondays with each meeting alternating between 1600 UTC and 1900 UTC, and last around an hour. Meeting times can be negotiated and adjusted by board members as needed. The new members will be chosen using Condorcet voting. Members of the ubuntu-dev team in Launchpad will be eligible to vote. To ensure that you receive a ballot in the initial mail, please ensure that a visible email address exists on your Launchpad profile (although there will be an opportunity to receive a ballot after the vote has started if you do not wish to do this). The term of the new board members will be at least two years. Providing at least five valid nominations are received, voting will commence on Wednesday, June 8, 2022 and will last for approximately seven days, ending on or around Wednesday, June 15, 2022. Please send nominations to developer-membership-board at lists.ubuntu.com (which is a private mailing list accessible only by DMB members) by midnight UTC on Tuesday, May 31, 2022. If nominating a developer other than yourself, please confirm that the nominee is happy to sit on the board before emailing the DMB. If nominated, please consider writing a short statement on your wiki page so that others get a better idea of for whom they are voting. If you include a link to your statement in your nomination mail or in a followup, it will be shared when the candidates are announced. The wiki has suffered from some outages recently; feel free to use a suitable alternative if needed, such as Discourse[2] or a personal site. This call for nominations is being sent to a moderated announcement mailing list. For discussion, Ubuntu developers should use ubuntu-devel at lists.ubuntu.com.
