He has been active in bufferbloat/cerowrt/openwrt and wireless research

Well I asked if he was willing to do so, so I guess he was. :)

I'd like to have a chance to attempt implementing the strategy we
outlined here, to fix the edge of the internet, and it seemed to me
that getting on the linux-foundation TAB would make that more
possible.

Is there a good description of what is expected of a TAB member? How much time
is involved? What makes a great TAB member?

I've found: http://www.linuxfoundation.org/programs/advisory-councils/tab

I've read the charter and scanned some of the minutes, but I'd still like to
hear from some of the "incumbants". Specifically, what makes you successful as a
member of the TAB?

Is there a good description of what is expected of a TAB member? How much time
is involved? What makes a great TAB member?

I've found: http://www.linuxfoundation.org/programs/advisory-councils/tab

I've read the charter and scanned some of the minutes, but I'd still like to
hear from some of the "incumbants". Specifically, what makes you successful as a
member of the TAB?

Also on the topic of the TAB and elections, I cannot figure out what:

  "Only one vote per candidate will be counted."

means in:

Voting:
-------
Each person present at the time of the election shall be handed a printed
ballot.  Voters may vote for as many candidates as they wish. Only one
vote per candidate will be counted. A space will be provided where
they can fill out the ballot in private and place it into a box to be
counted in private.

Sorry this was a bit confusing.  Basically, it means you can vote for as
many candidates as you like, but if you can't vote multiple times for the
same candidate on your ballot.

Thanks.  That was the only explanation I could come up with that made
any sense, but it definitely isn't obvious (to me) that that is the
meaning of the words.

I've been asked several versions of the same question, and also the
annual "what does the TAB actually do?" question, so I'm going to try
and answer them all in one email:

As the name implies, the primary job of the TAB is to advise the Linux
Foundation board of directors on technical, social and political
issues regarding Linux and Open Source. Our job is to represent the
views of Linux developers and to foster constructive communication
between the Linux Foundation leadership and our community.

A natural by-product of this is that the TAB also acts in the
background to identify and resolve issues for the Linux community
before they become a problem. The TAB tends to be composed of well
respected individuals with good connections throughout our community,
and so we're in a good place to recognize who to talk to when an issue
is raised.

Finally, there are a few projects that the TAB is directly responsible
for. We make sure there is a planning committee for the Linux Plumbers
conference every year. We run a 'buddy' program to help new Linux
Foundation member companies learn how to be fine upstanding Linux
citizens. We are the response team for any issues of harassment or
abuse within the kernel community. In past years we coordinated the
response to UEFI Secure Boot to ensure that Linux would not be locked
out of the consumer PC market, and been active in helping member
companies understand and be comfortable with the licencing obligations
associated with Linux.

A good TAB member is well respected by the community, is a ready
listener, is comfortable discussing both technical and social issues,
and has a good understanding of how the Linux community works. Since
the TAB deals with a wide range of issues, the ideal TAB candidate
should be prepared to consider issues outside of their own area of
expertise. Sometime the most important characteristic of a TAB member
is recognizing when an issue is beyond their depth and go looking for
the right person to consult.

Time commitment wise, The TAB meets once a month for a conference
call, plus any additional time required to deal with TAB business.
Once a year (6 months after the TAB general election) the TAB elects
one member to serve as the chair, and the chair of the TAB is proposed
to the Linux Foundation to serve as a Linux Foundation Director which
has additional time requirements.

One last point, some issues addressed by the TAB are highly sensitive
and any member can request a topic to be kept strictly confidential.
We do this to protect the working relationship we have with industry
bodies, and to protect the companies and individuals involved. Any
prospective TAB member must be comfortable abiding by our
confidentiality rules.

I hope this answers your questions.

I've been asked several versions of the same question, and also the
annual "what does the TAB actually do?" question, so I'm going to try
and answer them all in one email:

As the name implies, the primary job of the TAB is to advise the Linux
Foundation board of directors on technical, social and political
issues regarding Linux and Open Source. Our job is to represent the
views of Linux developers and to foster constructive communication
between the Linux Foundation leadership and our community.

A natural by-product of this is that the TAB also acts in the
background to identify and resolve issues for the Linux community
before they become a problem. The TAB tends to be composed of well
respected individuals with good connections throughout our community,
and so we're in a good place to recognize who to talk to when an issue
is raised.

Finally, there are a few projects that the TAB is directly responsible
for. We make sure there is a planning committee for the Linux Plumbers
conference every year. We run a 'buddy' program to help new Linux
Foundation member companies learn how to be fine upstanding Linux
citizens. We are the response team for any issues of harassment or
abuse within the kernel community. In past years we coordinated the
response to UEFI Secure Boot to ensure that Linux would not be locked
out of the consumer PC market, and been active in helping member
companies understand and be comfortable with the licencing obligations
associated with Linux.

A good TAB member is well respected by the community, is a ready
listener, is comfortable discussing both technical and social issues,
and has a good understanding of how the Linux community works. Since
the TAB deals with a wide range of issues, the ideal TAB candidate
should be prepared to consider issues outside of their own area of
expertise. Sometime the most important characteristic of a TAB member
is recognizing when an issue is beyond their depth and go looking for
the right person to consult.

Time commitment wise, The TAB meets once a month for a conference
call, plus any additional time required to deal with TAB business.
Once a year (6 months after the TAB general election) the TAB elects
one member to serve as the chair, and the chair of the TAB is proposed
to the Linux Foundation to serve as a Linux Foundation Director which
has additional time requirements.

One last point, some issues addressed by the TAB are highly sensitive
and any member can request a topic to be kept strictly confidential.
We do this to protect the working relationship we have with industry
bodies, and to protect the companies and individuals involved. Any
prospective TAB member must be comfortable abiding by our
confidentiality rules.

I hope this answers your questions.

Great summary, Grant, thanks.

A few additions of my own...

- The Linux Foundation tends to ask TAB members if they can give talks at
  events.  Even more than free software development in general, TAB
  membership can be good if you don't like buying your own T-shirts!

- The TAB has been named in the kernel's "code of conflict" as the body
  that will receive complaints about harassment or other untoward
  behavior in our community and try to resolve them.  Thus far, no such
  complaints have been presented, but TAB members need to be prepared for
  that to happen.

- It has been my feeling for a fair while that the LF could make more use
  of the TAB and its expertise than happens currently.  Good TAB members
  might be those who are willing to let the LF know when they have an
  opinion on what the LF should be doing with and for the community.  As
  an example, some of us have been pushing for the TAB to help with the
  selection of technical talks at LF conferences; I *think* that we
  provided useful input for LCE this year.

That ties in to my last thought...in my time on the TAB, I've noticed
that most of the work tends to be done by a relatively small subset of
the members.  Perhaps every committee is like that, in the end.  A
successful TAB member, IMO, is one who is willing to make the time to not
just attend attend the meetings (which may be at less-than-convenient
times depending on where you live and travel), but also to commit to
putting some time into helping out when there's something to be done.

That's it. Any nominations received after this point will not make it

Note: nominations received after midnight tonight MDT (a.k.a. 06:00 UTC)
may not appear on the preprinted ballots, depending on when we need to
have them ready to print.

We will be using preprinted ballots which will be counted both by
machine and cross-checked by hand.  If this works out we may trust the
automatic system (an open-source package called SDAPS) in the futureand
only do manual counts on demand,

Note to self: that includes me.  :)

[Ksummit-discuss] Linux Foundation Technical Advisory Board Elections and Nomination process

[Chris Mason]

Hello everyone,

The elections for five of the ten members of the Linux Foundation 
Technical Advisory Board (TAB) are held every year[1]. This year the
election will be at the 2016 Kernel Summit in Santa Fe, NM.

The elections will take place at the conference center on Wednesday Nov 
2nd, shortly before the evening Kernel Summit/Plumbers reception.  The 
elections will be open to all attendees of both the Kernel Summit and 
the Linux Plumbers.

Anyone is eligible to stand for election, simply send your nomination to:

tech-board-discuss at lists.linux-foundation.org

Just before the election, everyone will have a chance to introduce 
themselves and briefly talk about why they would like to participate on 
the Technical Advisory Board.   This year, we're encouraging everyone to 
include those details along with their nomination, which we will compile 
into an online document for quick reference.

The deadline for receiving nominations is up until the beginning of
the event where the election is held.  Any statements for the online 
document need to be sent by Friday Oct 28th.  Please remember if
you're not going to be present that things go wrong with both networks
and mailing lists, so get your nomination in early).

Chris Mason, TAB Chair

[1] TAB members sit for a term of two years, and half of the board is up
for election every year. Five of the seats are up for election now.
The other five are halfway through their term and will be up for
election next year.

Re: [Ksummit-discuss] Linux Foundation Technical Advisory Board Elections and Nomination process

[Grant Likely]

No, not yet. it will be out very-soon-now.

Thanks to everyone for the corrections: Chris does work at Facebook now,
so his address is clm@fb.com (I should have checked before cutting and

The Time and Place for the election will be 20:00 at the Museum of
Science and Industry on Wednesday 20 August (The joint KS/LinuxCon
event).

We still have only 3 nominations for 5 places, So we'll do a last call
for nominations at 20:00 and if there are five or fewer, there won't be
an election and the TAB will use its charter process to appoint people
to fill any shortfall.
