Hi Carmen and everyone,

I prefer the second option – need further clarification before voting,

especially to understand why this adjustment is necessary and whether there are other possible options to reduce costs.

 

Thanks!

Sanhong

主题: [adoptium-sc] Action Required: Vote on the Working Group Charter Update: Conversion of Working Group Participation Fees from USD to Euros for existing members in 2027

 

Dear Adoptium SC Members,

 

Following up on our Steering Committee meeting on November 13th, the vote on the Working Group Charter Update did not achieve the required supermajority. 

 

The proposal is to convert the membership fees from USD to EUR. This conversion maintains the nominal fee value, which at the current exchange rate represents approximately a 15% increase. This adjustment is necessary as membership fees have remained unchanged since the Working Group's creation, despite rising operational costs.

 

An additional consideration, given the late date in the year and in response to members feedback, it is hard for members to even discuss this change with their management and it is becoming hard to manage this change for the Eclipse Foundation as well. The fee update is scheduled to take effect for new members starting in 2026 and for existing members starting in 2027.

 

Please select your preferred course of action below and respond via this email thread:

 

  1. Proceed with the electronic voting process, as agreed on the previous SC call. If this option is selected, please ensure your vote is submitted within the next 7 business days (+1, -1 or 0). This option will be open to all voting members: Strategic members (Azul, Rivos, Google, IBM, Alibaba, Microsoft) and the Enterprise/Participant members representative (Fujitsu, iJUG). 

 

  1. Defer the decision to the next Steering Committee meeting on November 27th.

 

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
