I must admit even I was unaware of the requirement to be a individual foundation member in order to vote in PTL elections (I personally happen to be a member already). There are definitely at least a few people on the list below that I feel should be able to vote but can't, including two core members, Sumit and Aaron.
The summary for the elections process that I saw sent to the list (see below) said nothing about foundation membership, and said that the process is "mostly the same used in past PTL/PPB" elections, which clearly did not have a foundation requirement because the foundation didn't exist. This is not the end of the world, but I'm guessing both Gary and I would both feel better if people had a chance to revisit their foundation status. Is there anything we can do about this? Dan >From Thierry's email: TL;DR summary: * The election process is mostly the same used in past PTL/PPB elections * Only active technical contributors get to vote in these elections (see wiki for details) * We'll run the PTL elections first: nominations between Aug 30 and Sep 5, voting between Sep 7 and Sep 13 * We'll run the TC directly-elected seats election next: nominations between Sep 13 and Sep 19, voting between Sep 21 and Sep 27 * Candidates will publicly nominate themselves by email to this list and get publicly confirmed by one of the election officials On Thu, Sep 6, 2012 at 3:27 AM, Thierry Carrez <thie...@openstack.org> wrote: > Hello everyone, > > The deadline for candidacy to PTL positions is now expired. > > We have two candidates for the Quantum PTL position, so we'll hold an > election for that, starting tomorrow.
