[gentoo-dev-announce] Gentoo Foundation Elections

[Jorge Manuel B. S. Vicetto]

Hello fellow devs, users and Gentoo community.


The election for the Gentoo Foundation trustees has started. The 
nomination period started today and lasts until Tuesday, February 12th. 
The election polls will be open from Wednesday February 13th to 
Wednesday 27th. The elected trustees start their term on March 1st.

The election officials are Łukasz Damentko[1], Jorge Manuel B. S. 
Vicetto[2], and Richard Freeman[3]. The infrastructure team contact for 
the election is Shyam Mani[4]. The election officials have published a 
page[5] with all the information on the election including lists of 
voting members of the Gentoo Foundation.

To nominate a candidate, join the gentoo-nfp[6]  mailing list. Trustee 
nominations are open to the public; voting is limited to eligible 
voters. Send all your nominations, acceptances and feedback to the 
gentoo-nfp list[7]. The election officials have published on their page 
lists of current Foundation members[8] and of eligible current devs[9].

We ask all Foundation members and current devs to check if they are in 
the correct lists and to confirm their details. In particular, devs 
should check if they  don't lack a join date in the ldap record[10]. To 
check one's details, a dev should logon to dev.gentoo.org and run 
"perl_ldap -s <nick>". Check infra's documentation for more info on 
Gentoo LDAP service[11] and concrete examples[12] on how to change 
attributes.

If you have any doubts about the election or any corrections to the page 
and lists, contact the election officials.
