From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Andrew Petro Sent: Thursday, June 11, 2009 5:02 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [uportal-dev] Nominating Jen Bourey for uPortal Project Steering Committee uPortal developers, I'd like to nominate Jen Bourey as a uPortal developer representative to the uPortal Steering Committee. I believe Jen needs no introduction to the community of uPortal committers, but I'd nonetheless take a moment to remind of her recent and ongoing contributions to uPortal. Ohloh credits<http://www.ohloh.net/p/3510/contributors> Jen with more than 200 commits to the uPortal codebase (which feels awfully low, in part because Jen has been a leader or major contributor to several Jasig portlet projects, including the Calendar portlet<http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/PLT/CalendarPortlet>, the Feedback portlet<http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/PLT/Unconference+Feedback+Portlet>, and the Tabbed Search portlet<http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/PLT/TabbedSearchPortlet>). Jen has given several popular Jasig conference presentations about uPortal, including on JavaScript in uPortal 3, on using AJAX to improve the user experience, on uPortal 3 configuration and deployment automation, and on open source portlet incubation. Jen regularly posts to this developer email list and has answered many questions on the uportal-user@ email list. She is also regularly available and active in the uPortal IRC channel. In short, I believe Jen is eminently qualified to represent uPortal developers on the uPortal project steering committee and I would expect she would bring enthusiasm, technical competence, and particularly attention to continuing to grow the set of portlets and the quality of the user experience in uPortal. With many thanks to Jen for all her contributions to uPortal, Andrew ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jonathan Markow" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Cc: "uPortal PSC" <[email protected]>, [email protected], "JA-SIG Board" <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, June 10, 2009 8:48:29 AM GMT -07:00 U.S. Mountain Time (Arizona) Subject: [uportal-dev] Developer Representatives to Project Steering Committees Developers: You have received a couple of emails recently about the Jasig 2009 Elections, during which our membership will be selecting stakeholder positions on the project steering committees for both uPortal and CAS. At the same time we will be asking you to select developer representatives to each of the committees. uPortal has two developer positions and CAS has one: Current uPortal Reps: Eric Dalquist Andrew Petro Current CAS Rep: Scott Battaglia These developer positions are not subject to term limits, and incumbents may serve successive terms. But we do ask each team to revisit their selections each year and make fresh recommendations. The way the process works is this: 1. Any developer may serve if selected 2. Only committers have votes; they are not required to belong to Member organizations 3. Discussion is open to all on the developer lists 4. Please initiate discussion on your list when the spirit moves you (This week would be a good time to start :-) 5. You may nominate others or yourself 6. We will need a decision on your selections by the end of the Jasig election process, which is July 17, 2009 7. Committee chairs should monitor these selections and report results back to the steering committees. 8. New terms officially begin on September 1, 2009 Questions? Please feel free to ask. Thank you!
