Hi all,
Just a ping there: we got a few replies, but we certainly would welcome
more volunteers! We feel that getting new blood in the election
committee is really important, so don't hesitate to step in; if you're
afraid it's too much work, then keep in mind that you won't be doing
that alone :-)
Cheers,
Vincent

Hi,
openSUSE Board election time is approaching and we are looking for
volunteers to form the Election Committee. Based on our
interpretation of the rules 4 seats are up for grabs but this will
have to be confirmed by the Election Committee. Obviously those
considering running for a board position should not be part of the
committee.
The rules are documented here:
http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Board_election_rules
The responsibilities of the committee are as follows:
+ Defining how many seats are up for election
+ Define the mix of one and two year term seats
+ Create a schedule for the elections
+ Handling and verifying of candidate nominations
+ Work with candidates to get candidate information posted
+ Collaborating with the Membership Officials to ensure that
membership applications are processed in time
+ Checking and testing of our voting setup before the real voting
+ Validating the election results
+ Resolving any post-results issues
+ Announce results and post them to the wiki
We had a number of elections previously and thus you can piggy back
on work that has been done in previous years. This is very important
to the project, if you are not considering to be a candidate for the
board please consider to volunteer on the committee. It is a limited
time "position" (until shortly after the election results are
posted), but is a great way to provide a valuable contribution.
If you are interested in participating on the Election Committee
please send a message to the board mailing list.
Thanks,
Your openSUSE Board
