[Project] 2023 Board Elections #16

Open Beanow opened 1 year ago

Beanow commented 1 year ago

Organizing the 2023 Board Director elections. Here are some facts:

There are 5 out of 7 seats available for election. Their terms will end at July 16th 2023. A full term is 2 years. However the Chairperson is chosen from amongst the new Directors every year.

Not all seats are required to be filled. There's a hard minimum of 3 Directors. So at least 1 person MUST be elected this round.

However there are some additional needs, for example they can't all be hired by the same company. A good heuristic would be to have 3 Directors able to vote at all times, even after some have abstained to avoid conflict of interest. And of course the more representation of the diverse community the better.

Because this is the first election of this setup, and with a short window to prepare, some mistakes are expected. With that in mind, it would be sound to have some kind of review or ratification organized by the working group as well. This allows the WG to consider whether the execution was sound enough to accept the result.
