Hello Kubuntu community! The terms for the following Council members are due to expire on the 2nd September 2022:
Myriam Schweingruber Simon Quigley Valorie Zimmerman I hereby call for nominations for the Kubuntu Council to elect three (3) members and hope that current members will continue to serve until we have the names of the new Council members. The term is for two years, spanning 2nd September 2022 to 2nd September 2024. As in the past, the election will be conducted using CIVS (Condorcet Internet Voting Service) - http://www.cs.cornell.edu/andru/civs.html and the top three ranking vote recipients will be elected. Schedule: Nomination period: Now to the 23rd Augustr 2022 Ballot Preparation: 23rd August to the next day Voting Period: 24th August to 31s August End Poll/Results Announced: 1st September New Term Begins: 2ndSeptember 2022 The above deadlines may be subject to minor revision, and a follow up email will give details if this is so. However, nominations open NOW so please be as prompt as possible. Please mention what you would like to accomplish within the Kubuntu project (Why people should vote for you) Eligibility: All Kubuntu Members ( https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-members/+members ) are eligible to be nominated and to vote. If you have a public email address in Launchpad, you need take no further action to receive your voting ballot. If you do not have a public email address, please contact me off-list with the address you'd like your ballot sent to, otherwise you will be unable to vote. Nominations: All Kubuntu members are eligible. The Kubuntu Council is intended to represent all of the Kubuntu community. Applications from involved non-developers are encouraged. If you are nominating someone else, please confirm their willingness to serve before nominating them. Nominations should be done in public via either kubuntu-users or kubuntu-devel mailing lists. If there is some extraordinary reason that precludes that, contact me directly. Commitment: The Kubuntu Council is the leadership body of Kubuntu. Members of the council are expected to be active in the Kubuntu community/project. It has three primary roles: - Approve development plans for future Kubuntu releases - Approve Kubuntu membership applications - Resolve disputes within the Kubuntu project The time commitment is not large. Meetings are generally only once every several months and conducted via IRC. However, we do need the Kubuntu Council to lead the community, not sit back and only attend meetings. Questions: If there are questions, you can contact us via this mailing list or (if really necessary) via direct mail. We can also be found on Freenode IRC in #kubuntu, #kubuntu-council or #kubuntu-devel Many thanks to all and please remember "time is of the essence".
