07 Dec '15

It's that time of year when we (openSUSE members) need to elect representatives for the openSUSE Board [0] This year, there will be 3 seats to be elected, all for a standard 2 year (24 months) term : - Andrew Wafaa, Bruno Friedman and Robert Schweikert seats all need filling. Due to busyschedules, it was very difficult to start the election process until today. The openSUSE Election Committee is aware that running elections during Christmas period is not the best period, with many people being away from their computer. Therefore, in agreement with openSUSE Board chairman and current board, openSUSE Election Committee is extending all current board member terms by 1 month and announce the election schedule: 1/ 2015-12-07 (Phase 0) * Announcement of the openSUSE Board election for 2016. * Start of 3 week period to apply for an openSUSE membership (in order to vote or candidate). * Start of 3 week phase to stand for a position in the openSUSE Board. 2/ 2015-12-27 * Notification of intent to run, and application for an openSUSE membership close (end of phase 0). 3/ 2015-12-28 (Phase 1) * Start of 4 week campaign for the candidates before the ballots open (campaign might be done until ballots close). 4/ 2016-01-18 (Phase 2) * Ballots open: Please cast your vote here! 5/ 2016-01-30 [1] * Ballots close (end of phase 2) 6/ 2016-01-31 * Announcement of the results If you want to participate in the openSUSE board and influence the future direction of the project please stand up and announce[1] your candidacy.
