Now that we are enjoying Fedora Linux 42, it’s time to hold an election…or four! On April 24, the nominations period will open for the following seats across some of the Fedora Governance groups:
The nominations period will open on April 24 and close on May 8, as per the schedule. If you would like to nominate yourself or someone you know for one or more of these positions, please add your or their name to the nominations table on the respective nominations page. Please make sure you have the express permission of the person you are nominating before you submit their name.
The elected seats on Fedora Council, FESCo and two of the elected Mindshare seats are for a two-release term (usually about 12 months, ish). The other two elected seats on Mindshare will be for a 6-month term, and the EPEL Steering Committee seats are for a two year term. For more information on these governance groups, please visit their docs pages:
Elections are held twice a year, in concert with the joint Fedora election cycle. One seat is selected at each election, and each position has a two-election (approximately one year) term.
It appears that both Adam and Aleksandra served f40-f42 terms that expire at the same time, but the Charter indicates that one of them ought to be expiring on odd releases. I know sometimes things get offset because of resignations or whatever. Is there any plan to have somebody serve a half term to get back on the alternating terms?
