Re: [automotive-pmc] URGENT: Several committer elections are awaiting yo

[Andreas Riexinger <andreas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear all,

with regard to the nomination of Florian Bäuerle (https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/automotive.score/elections/election-florian-bauerle-eclipse-safe-open-vehicle-core) the Automotive PMC discussed the nomination again in our meeting today.

Unfortunately, there was a discussion behind the curtain between a S-CORE project lead and one member of the Automotive PMC, where the PMC asked for clarification and information on the mailing list.

Please provide the information on the Automotive PMC mailing list and we are happy to discuss the nomination in our next meeting.

Best,

Andy

On behalf of the Automotive PMC

P.S: To answer on the mailing list, please do not forget to subscribe to it

Thanks Lukas.

I've identified two related issues and have bumped them to get them on the team's radar.

• Need way to navigate from project to elections
• Send reminder emails to PMC for pending election approvals

IMHO both proposed solutions are better than the notifications option, but I've opened an issue to address that as well.

Thanks for the feedback.

Hi Wayne,

thanks for the reminder.

Before voting on these elections, we would like to complete our PMC review. 
As part of our governance responsibilities, we try to ensure that nominations are sufficiently supported by evidence of the nominee's merit-based contributions to the project.

In several of the current nominations, we found the rationale to be rather high level, while concrete references to project contributions (e.g., commits, reviews, issues, specifications, or other community activities) are largely missing. 
We'll therefore take some time to collect and review the relevant evidence ourselves before casting our votes.

Our next Automotive PMC meeting is on Monday, where we typically discuss elections that require additional review. 
We therefore expect to complete the review and vote on these nominations after that meeting.

Thanks for your understanding.

Best regards

Lukas

PS: Just FYI, despite the outstanding approvals, the notification area remains empty for me:

Greeting Eclipse Automotive PMC.

Several committer elections are awaiting your approval. Can you please have a look?

FYI, the EMO is aware that our notification system is flawed. If you miss the email amid the noise (or the message gets marked as spam) you won't even know that matters are awaiting your attention.

The PMI has a helpful feature, but it's not especially easy to find: the "Profile" icon in the top-right corner of the PMI includes an option to list notifications. As a PMC member, the list of notifications should include the outstanding elections requiring your attention.

I will connect with the team to see if we can do more to ensure these do not slip through the cracks.

Thanks,

Wayne
