| [tangle.ee-wg] Tangle EE Working Group Steering Committee - Participant Member Election! |
The Eclipse Tangle EE Working Group Charter [1] identifies the Steering Committee will drive the various facets of the working group for which there are elected positions to be filled.
In the case of Tangle EE, the elected positions are for Participant Members for which there are two open seats. Note that Strategic Members each have a representative appointed to the Steering Committee.
Through this email, we are announcing that the Eclipse Foundation will hold elections on behalf of the working group using the proposed timetable listed below. FYI, this mimics the process used by other working groups as well as the process used by the Eclipse Foundation itself for filling the elected positions on our Board.
All members are encouraged to consider nominating someone from a Participant Member for the positions, and self-nominations are welcome. Nominations may be sent to elections@xxxxxxxxxxx using the subject line of “Tangle EE Working Group Steering Committee - Participant Member Election”.
Once nominations are closed, we will inform all working group members of the candidates, and 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 [2].
The winning candidates will be announced on this mailing list immediately after the elections are concluded.
