We do self-nomination (people who want to run nominate themselves)
because then you don't have to go through the painful step of
*confirming* candidates (people may not agree to run).

  3. Electorate -
   a. all AUTHORS on the Savanna repositories
   b. all committers (git log --author) on Savanna repos since Grizzly
 release
   c. all committers since Savanna inception
   d. savanna-core members (currently 2 people)
   e. committers w/ filter on number of commits or size of commits
   - Current direction is to be broadly inclusive (not (d) or (e)) thus
 (a), it is believed that (a) ~= (b) ~= (c).

If you want to make it like OpenStack it should be all Savanna recent
authors (last year), as given by git. Maybe the infra team could even
give you a list of emails for use in CIVS.

  4. Duration of election -
   a. 1 week (from 15 Aug meeting to 22 Aug meeting)
  5. Term -
   a. effective immediately through next full OpenStack election cycle
 (i.e. now until I release, 6 mo+)
   b. effective immediately until min(6 mo, incubation)
   c. effective immediately until end of incubation
   - Current direction is any option that aligns with the standard
 OpenStack election cycle

I think (a) would work well.

[openstack-dev] [savanna] Savanna PTL election proposal

2013-08-12 Thread Matthew Farrellee 

This is a request for feedback from the community.

The Savanna project has been operating with a benevolent dictator. It 
wants to upgrade to an elected PTL.


There's no set process for a project that isn't incubating or 
integrated. Our goal is to mirror the standard election process as 
closely as possible, but a few options exist for components of the election.


The goal is to agree on election options during this week's (15 Aug) 
Savanna meeting 
(https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Meetings/SavannaAgenda), start the 
election after the meeting, and complete the election by the following 
week's meeting. (This is also open for suggestions)


The proposal w/ options -
 0. System -
  a. http://www.cs.cornell.edu/w8/~andru/civs/
 1. Candidates -
  a. members of the electorate (OpenStack standard)
 2. Candidate nomination -
  a. anyone can list names in 
https://etherpad.openstack.org/savanna-ptl-candidates-0

  b. anyone mentioned during this week's IRC meeting
  c. both (a) and (b)
  - Current direction is to be inclusive and thus (c)
 3. Electorate -
  a. all AUTHORS on the Savanna repositories
  b. all committers (git log --author) on Savanna repos since Grizzly 
release

  c. all committers since Savanna inception
  d. savanna-core members (currently 2 people)
  e. committers w/ filter on number of commits or size of commits
  - Current direction is to be broadly inclusive (not (d) or (e)) thus 
(a), it is believed that (a) ~= (b) ~= (c).

 4. Duration of election -
  a. 1 week (from 15 Aug meeting to 22 Aug meeting)
 5. Term -
  a. effective immediately through next full OpenStack election cycle 
(i.e. now until I release, 6 mo+)

  b. effective immediately until min(6 mo, incubation)
  c. effective immediately until end of incubation
  - Current direction is any option that aligns with the standard 
OpenStack election cycle


FYI, Savanna repositories -
 . https://github.com/stackforge/savanna - core services
 . https://github.com/stackforge/savanna-extra - DIB elements
 . https://github.com/stackforge/savanna-dashboard - horizon integration
 . https://github.com/stackforge/python-savannaclient - client library

Thanks to hub_cap and other folks on #savanna for the lively discussion 
and debate in forming this proposal.


Best,
