Strategic Members are appointed to the Committee, while the elected positions are to represent the Supporter and Committer members. Supporter members and Committer members will each hold one seat on the Steering Committee.
Through this email, we are announcing that the Foundation will hold elections on behalf of the working group using the proposed timetable listed below:
All Members are encouraged to consider nominating someone from a Supporter Member (EclipseSource, Kichwa Coders Canada Inc., and VMWare, Inc.) as well as Committer members from the Eclipse IDE List of Projects Self-nominations are also more than welcome.
Nominations must be sent to this mailing list. When the nomination period is closed, we will inform the working group of the confirmed candidates providing a short bio for each along with their position statement. At that point, we will distribute ballots via email to those eligible to vote. The election process will follow the Eclipse “Single Transferable Vote” method, as defined in the Eclipse Bylaws. The winning candidates will be announced on this mailing list following the close of the election.
