Would somebody from devrel/recruiters please assemble a list of those devs? Once that's done, the trustees should (pro-forma) nominate those developers for membership, and we should e-mail invitations. If at all possible, I'd like to get this done by the end of the month so that we can have elections for trustees by the end of May. Incidentally, veszig tells me that he has the infrastructure set up for online voting (yes, without using the forums). Once invitations go out we will need a way for members to register to vote. (Remember, though, that, members only have to register to vote if they wish to be counted as deliberately not voting, since actually voting includes an implicit registration.) I had envisioned some sort of webapp, but I don't want to write it. Since, at least for the moment, all Foundation members will be Gentoo devs, how about we just make registering to vote mean that the member has done a "touch .vote" on dev.g.o? If somebody wants to write some useful tools to manage all of this stuff (like reminding devs when their registration is about to expire), then we'd be exceptionally grateful, but it's fortunately not urgent. If I'm missing anything, or just completely on the wrong track, please let me know. -g2boojum- --=20 Grant Goodyear=09 Gentoo Developer g2boojum@gentoo.org http://www.gentoo.org/~g2boojum GPG Fingerprint: D706 9802 1663 DEF5 81B0 9573 A6DC 7152 E0F6 5B76 --6Vw0j8UKbyX0bfpA Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFCYSESptxxUuD2W3YRAizuAJwIKZpbtQ4q9WvHg4K68jfPo33XCwCeODF8 agp5gs73W/f4tP3NmU60AIc= =Fpfw -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --6Vw0j8UKbyX0bfpA-- -- gentoo-nfp@gentoo.org mailing list
