A reminder that we are still seeking nominations for candidates for election to the X.Org Foundation Board of Directors. All X.Org Foundation members are eligible for election to the board.
Nominations for the 2011 election are already open and will remain open until 23.59 GMT on 13 February 2012. The Board consists of directors elected from the membership. Each year, an election is held to bring the total number of directors to eight. The four members receiving the highest vote totals will serve as directors for two year terms. The directors who received two year terms starting last year were Eric Anholt, Alan Coopersmith, Stuart Kreitman, and Bart Massey. They will continue to serve until their term ends in next year's elections. Current directors who were elected two years ago, and whose term is expiring are Alex Deucher, Matthieu Herrb, Matthias Hopf, and Keith Packard. A director is expected to participate in the biweekly IRC meeting to discuss current business and to attend the annual meeting of the X.Org Foundation, which will be held at a location determined in advance by the Board of Directors. A member may nominate themselves or any other member they feel is qualified. Nominations should be sent to the Election Committee at electi...@x.org. Nominees shall be required to be current members of the X.Org Foundation, and submit a personal statement of up to 200 words that will be provided to prospective voters. The collected statements, along with the statement of contribution to the X.Org Foundation in the members account page on http://members.x.org, will be made available to all voters to help them make their voting decisions. Nominations, membership applications or renewals and completed personal statements must be received no later than 23.59 GMT on 13 February 2012.
