Hi StarlingX Community, I’m reaching out to you with some updates about filling the still open leadership positions for the below StarlingX project teams. The election officials[1] have been working with the affected project teams and the StarlingX TSC to ensure that the leadership positions are filled. Election officials confirmed that there were a few people who missed the official nomination period, but would like to continue in their roles. To address this, the election officials and the new StarlingX TSC group came up with a simplified process to have them serve in these roles for an additional term. The process is the following: - Current PLs and TLs, who missed the nomination period, but would like to continue in their roles are now asked to submit their nomination patch to the election repo[2]. - The TSC and election officials will review the nominations to make sure that the candidates still meet the election criteria. - When the aforementioned reviews are approved, the election officials will submit the changes to the projects.yaml file in the governance repo, and approve it after reviews from the TSC. Election officials will continue working with the affected project teams with unfilled positions on next steps and resolution. Please respond to this thread or reach out to the election officials if you have any questions or comments. Thanks and Best Regards, [1] https://docs.starlingx.io/election/#election-officials [2] https://docs.starlingx.io/election/#how-to-submit-a-candidacy

Hi StarlingX Community,

I’m reaching out to you on behalf of the election officials[1], with a quick update about the nomination period of the StarlingX TSC/PL/TL elections[2].

The following positions are currently without nominations:

- Build PL - Containers TL - Distcloud PL - Distro * PL * TL - Flock Services PL - Release * PL * TL - Security * PL * TL

If you’ve been planning to run for either of the above positions and haven’t submitted your nomination yet, you still have over an hour to do so! You can find the details of how to submit your candidacy[3] on the election webpage[4].

Please let me know if you need any help.

Thanks and Best Regards, Ildikó
