Subject: [Tech-board-discuss] TAB nomination
Date: Thu, 5 Sep 2019 13:03:30 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190905130330.3720ae3b@lwn.net> (raw)
I'm the lead editor of LWN.net and the maintainer of the kernel's
documentation "subsystem". Regardless of what I'm working on, my role in
the kernel community (and beyond) seems to be focused on ensuring that we
all know what we're up to. As part of that role, I am running to be
re-elected to the Linux Foundation's Technical Advisory Board.
Like many in the TAB, I put a lot of effort during the last couple of years
into the creation and adoption of the kernel's code of conduct. Other
areas of activity have included trying to improve the technical content at
LF events, the management of the Linux Plumbers Conference, mentorship
of applicants to the Community Bridge program, and the essential task of
keeping spam off the tech-board list.
I remain concerned that the Linux Foundation appears to be less than fully
transparent to the community, and that it fails to take full advantage of
resources like the TAB when conceiving and executing is programs. This, I
believe, is more a result of too much work and a lack of prioritization
than any sign of a murky agenda, but I have been pushing for improvement in
that area and intend to continue to do so. The LF and the TAB are valuable
resources for our community; I think we can make them both better yet.
