TSC Policies and Procedures: Election cycle #39

Closed brianwarner closed 2 years ago

brianwarner commented 4 years ago

Another discussion item from the policies and procedures update: How frequently should TSC members be elected, and how long should their terms be? The goal is to have staggered elections, so that there is continuity.

The original proposal was to have 2 year terms, with half the TSC up for election every calendar year. @zhenxiao proposed 1/3 TSC up for election to ensure greater continuity.

Let's reach consensus on the length of a TSC term, and work backwards from there.

In the TSC meeting today, there was general consensus that 3 year terms with annual elections are preferable to 2 year terms, because only 1/3 of the TSC would be up for election at a time. This helps ensure continuity before and after election cycles.
