Re-constituting GMT Steering Committee (nominations due July 24) #9

Open maxrjones opened 1 month ago

maxrjones commented 1 month ago

Following up on the new governance structure from #7 , it's time to re-constitute a steering committee. Please post here if you'd like to nominate someone else or yourself for steering committee membership by July 24. If you would like to nominate someone but don't want to post on GitHub, please email me at maxjones@hawaii.edu As a reminder, these are the responsibilities for the steering committee:

  • Attend a one-hour steering committee meeting every six months.
  • Respond in a timely manner to steering-committee-related correspondence.
  • Act as an ambassador for the project in professional contexts.

The chair of the Steering Committee is expected to arrange the regular meetings and ensure that a report is shared with the community.

As mentioned in #7, active and previous core developers of GMT, wrappers, and related tools will decide on the Steering Committee based on these nominations, provided the nominee is interested. Please let me know if I'm missing anyone who should be involved in this decision: Joaqium, Dongdong , Leo, Walter, Dave Caress, David Sandwell, Wei Ji, Remko, Yvonne, Michael, Will, Federico

Hi,

Federico Esteban must be involved too.

joa-quim commented 1 month ago

During the discussion phase I had proposed. Remember that David Sandwell mentioned Eric instead of himself

Thanks, and sorry for my initial mistake Federico! I unfortunately wrote the issue while extremely jet-lagged

Thanks, @maxrjones for mentioning! I will read through this and related PRs / issues in the next day / on the weekend to get an overview.
