Subject: [Ksummit-discuss] Linux Foundation Technical Advisory Board Elections
Date: Tue, 13 Nov 2018 00:02:04 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181113000204.57942989@vmware.local.home> (raw)
Hello everyone,
The Linux Foundation Technical Advisory Board (TAB) serves as the
interface between the kernel development community and the Linux
Foundation. The TAB advises the Foundation on kernel-related matters,
helps member companies learn to work with the community, and works to
resolve community-related problems before they get out of hand. We're
also working with kernel maintainers to help refine the new code of
conduct, and serving as the initial point of contact for code of conduct
issues.
The board has ten members, one of whom sits on the Linux Foundation
board of directors.
The election to select five TAB members will be held at the 2018 Kernel
Summit in Vancouver, Canada. The elections will take place at the
conference center on Tuesday November 13th, at 5:30pm.
The election will be open to all attendees of all of the Linux
Foundation events taking place that week in Vancouver.
The current list of nominees are: (In order of submission)
Chris Mason *
Olof Johansson *
Shuah Khan
Rik van Riel *
Kees Cook
Laura Abbott
Dan Williams *
Pavel Machek
Laurent Pinchart
Mauro Carvalho Chehab
Those with a "*" next to their names are the current incumbents. There
are only four because H. Peter Anvin decided not to run for re-election.
Instead of speeches, this year we asked candidates to include
statements about why they would like to participate in the TAB. These
will be combined into a slideshow running during the election, and
available via a public google doc at this location:

Current TAB members that are not up for election this year:
Jon Corbet
Greg Kroah-Hartman
Steven Rostedt
Ted Tso
Tim Bird
As always, please let us know if you have questions.
-- Steve
[1] TAB members sit for a term of two years, and half of the board is up
for election every year. Five of the seats are up for election now.
The other five are halfway through their term and will be up for
election next year.
