Conversely, you're arguing for an expansion of scope for the TC. Its charter right now gives it power to govern the activities of the groups which produce the software and documentation which make up OpenStack. We have a separate governing body, the UC, which is intended to represent the people who deploy, run and interact with OpenStack software. Are you saying the UC should be dissolved and everyone it formerly represented should come under the jurisdiction of the TC? Or that we should all be represented by both the TC and UC no matter what our involvement with the OpenStack community/ecosystem might be? Or something else entirely? Governance in OpenStack is a two-way street, and the people whose actions are governed choose who governs those actions. Any increase in scope of possible voters is an equal increase in scope for the body governing them, and I don't personally think we should hand the TC additional jurisdiction outside its present charter. -- Jeremy Stanley _______________________________________________ OpenStack-operators mailing list OpenStack-operators@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-operators
