Hey, With the annual OGB elections coming up, there are a few existing core contributors whose grants are expiring -
http://opensolaris.org/os/community/ogb/2009_Expiring_Grants/ I'd like to propose to re-new all of them. In the future, if accepted, we'll be following http://wiki.genunix.org/wiki/index.php/OGB_2008/010_OpenSolaris_Constitution_2009 which introduces a new group called 'Electorate'. Essentially we're splitting the governance and voting aspect from the rest of the working community. As long as you do something non-trivial, you'll get voting rights, but consistent quality contributions are needed to get other privileges like direct commit access, or other types of leadership in a technical role. Membership will be for life, expiring every 2 years. So long as you're around the OpenSolaris scene and taking part, your membership will be re-newed. Comments to the changes to the constitution welcome on ogb-discuss at opensolaris.org. Glynn
