Re: [score-dev] Committer Election for Andrey Babanin on Eclipse Safe Op

["Lanin Alexander (ETAS/NXT)" <Alexander.Lanin@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi Andy,

I can answer only for myself why I did not participate in recent elections, and why I had trouble voting in this one.
Often, the elections are for people I have never heard of, so I simply do not know how to evaluate them.

Quite often, the nominated candidates do not have a clear or sufficient history of contributing to the project as a whole, or at least not in the areas I am familiar with. This is highly expected given that we have rather independent “modules” within the project. Since I do not know these people personally, I rely on GitHub data such as commits, issues, or discussions — but this only gives a very vague picture of their actual contributions.

Taking the current example: Andrey’s visible contributions are largely comments within one discussion. The election description states that he has been “leading the base libraries,” but I cannot judge whether he did a “significant” contribution or simply arranged the meetings. In reality, only a handful of people are in a position to assess this properly — and almost none of them are committers, but contributors to the base libraries. For such cases I would expect at most three or so truly informed votes. I highly doubt 30% or even 50% of committers can reasonably vote here.

I believe Wayne has already "volunteered" to discuss this (and similar meritocratic principles) with the project leads. You can easily reach me personally via Slack.

Best regards,

Alexander Lanin

Dear S-CORE committers,

 

greetings from your Automotive PMC.

 

I would like to take this nomination as a trigger. 😉

 

We approved some committer elections yesterday.

 

In that context we were wondering why the election participation was so low.

Below 30% of the committers took part in the elections.

The PMC would definitely like to see a participation rate of at least 50%. Please take part in the next elections! (see [1])

And if there are inactive committers, please consider retiring them [2].

 

Thanks!

 

Best,

Andy
