Although /me doesn't have time to be a core contributer at this time,
I propose that the OGB form an OpenSolaris Editorial Board under their
auspices that is responsible for setting the editorial direction of the
OpenSolaris website, and with overseeing the creation and evolution of
the site's content. Furthermore, the OGB resolution chartering this
OS.o Editorial Board should strive to charter it as something that
will have a vibrant, diverse and positive vision, and which will strive
to build cross-community participation in its composition and consensus
in its policies and direction.
I DO NOT expect the OGB to staff such a board, nor do I expect it to be
staffed by core contributers from any single CG. In order to be effective,
I feel that it needs to be driven by a few visionary leaders who are committed
to effectively engaging with the community in this endeavor.
The authority for such an OpenSolaris Editorial Board comes from
the OpenSolaris Constitution:
6.12. Board Committees. The OGB may designate, by
resolution adopted by an affirmative vote of a majority
of the OGB members, any number of Board Committees, each
consisting of at least one OGB member and composed of
persons appointed by the OGB from time to time. Each
committee, to the extent provided in such authorizing
resolution, shall have and may exercise all the power
and authority of the OGB in the management of the business
and affairs of the OpenSolaris Community within the limits
imposed by the Charter.
