Ryan, I'm fine with an initial round of some more nominations in order to increase the scope. We can schedule elections post-summit. We should at least be able to identify - 3 representatives of the geographies (US, EMEA, Asia) - A small number of industry representatives in the key areas that the foundation wants to focus on in 2013 We should try to avoid elections at the end of the year since this would cause extra confusion w.r.t. individual member board elections.

Elections will be difficult if we're trying to ensure the membership coverage areas we've set up. I do think elections are the right way to go, but setting them up properly is going to be difficult. <https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-Z7LVY2rk16Y/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAACM/oEGc 2Wyh_U0/s75/photo.jpg> Ryan Lane Marked as resolved You received this email because you are mentioned in this thread. <https://docs.google.com/comments/u/113083312811449550967/docos/notify?id=AA HRpnXurc10KsQzQVaFWi06iE1FbyLEJoxStQXMWfeN2Zkeb2YHsGxxGuW5Y3ETNTxqrY6Fr1wh7R PeDaAGCejt42m7UQ6vR44b02xXG1d_PGtniWw9Qe5o&title=OpenStack+User+Committee+Up date> Change what Google Docs sends you.You can reply to this email to reply to the comment. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
