| [sparkplug-wg] Sparkplug Working Group Steering Committee Elections Announcement |
The Sparkplug Working Group Charter identifies the Steering committee as a key governing body to drive various aspects of the working group for which there are elected positions to be filled.
While the Strategic Members are appointed to the Steering Committee, Participant Members and Committer Members are elected to be represented on the Steering Committee (one seat each).
Through this email, we are formally announcing the Eclipse Foundation will hold these elections on behalf of the working group using the proposed timetable listed below:
Election Schedule:
June 13-17: Call for Nominations
June 21 : Announce Candidates Standing
June 22-27: Ballots Created/Sent (Voting Period)
June 28 Announce Elected Candidates
All Participant members are encouraged to consider nominating someone at a Participant Level Member (Flow Software, Inc. Intel Corporation, SignalFire Telemetry), and from the Committer Members of the Sparkplug Specification project. 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.
Please let us know if you have any questions. Nominations are now open!.
Best Regards, Zahra
