Fedora Board Elections
 

As you all know, the Fedora Board consists of 9 seats -- 5 appointed by
Red Hat and 4 elected by the community.


After Fedora 7's release, 6 of those 9 seats rotated -- 3 appointed and
3 elected.


Now that Fedora 8 has been released, the other 3 seats need to rotate --
2 of the appointed ones, and 1 elected seat.


Bill Nottingham is going to remain on the Fedora Board in an appointed
seat. The second appointment will be made soon -- Chris Blizzard has
stepped aside from the Fedora Board, and we are looking at a couple of
different ideas for his seat.


We only have 1 elected seat open this time around, but I wanted to kick
off the process for filling it.


Last time, the community elected Dennis Gilmore, Jef Spaleta, and Chris
Aillon to the Fedora Board -- all superb choices.

open until December 6th.


Thanks,

We will try to balance this out at 2/2 in the future -- Seth's hire and
transfer from elected to appointed seat messed up the spacing a little
bit.

FWIW, I'm currently occupying this seat, and will stand for
re-election, but would be quite happy to see additional candidates.

I've updated http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Board/Elections/Nominations.

Thanks,
Matt
