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

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!
Jonathan
