Yesterday the JA-SIG Election Committee distributed a Call for
Nominations announcing the start of an election cycle for two board
director positions and three uPortal Project Steering Committee
stakeholder positions. Information about the steering committee, the
elections, and other governance-related items can be found at
http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/JSG/JA-SIG+Governance.
The steering committee model calls for two developers, to be selected
by the group of current committers, to serve on the committee. This
selection isn't governed by a board-defined election process. It's
left up to you to determine how to best choose the two developer
representatives.
The formal election process for directors and stakeholders will take
approximately six weeks, starting with yesterday's announcement. I'd
like to encourage you folks to begin your own process now so that the
developer representatives can be announced concurrently with the
stakeholders and board rep. At that point we should be ready to go
with a first steering committee meeting (which likely will be via
telephone). I will also participate in an ex officio capacity as
Acting JA-SIG Executive Director.
The wiki documentation about the uPortal Project Steering Committee
is fairly skeletal and that's intentional. This is our first
experience with a governing committee of this type, and, while we
have planned and vetted the concept for a number of months, we all
are nevertheless going to be experiencing it for the first time. Our
expectation is that it will need some tweaking along the way, and we
regard it as a work-in-progress to be refined as we collectively
figure out what works and what doesn't.
I would appreciate one of you picking up the ball and taking the next
step. I'll make myself available to answer any questions either by
email or by conference call, and I know the rest of the board will
extend the same offer.
Best of luck with your selection process. We're looking forward to
bringing it all together.
Thanks,
Jonathan
