Hello OpenBMC Community members,

Per [1], the TOF was expected to take additional action regarding the upcoming
elections by Feb 15th:

    Feb 15th - Current TOF must publish a final list of eligible voting members
               and upcoming candidates for TOF seats.

TL;DR: The following 4 individuals were nominated for TOF terms and since there
       were exactly 4 seats open there is no need for a formal election:

          - Andrew Jeffery
          - Jason Bills
          - Patrick Williams
          - William Kennington

----

The TOF voted on the following 4 motions today:

  a. Set "Highly-Productive" score to 100pts for 2021H2. **passed**

  b. Accept [2] as final voting membership for 2022H1 elections.  **passed**

  c. Accept the 4 on-time TOF nominations:  **passed**
        - Andrew Jeffery
        - Jason Bills
        - Patrick Williams
        - William Kennington

  d. Accept the late TOF nomination[3].  **failed**

All motions passed with unanimous support except for (d).  (d) received multiple
dissenting votes and therefore did not pass per the TOF process[4].

In light of this, the 4 individuals with accepted nominations from motion (c)
are considered to have run unopposed for the 4 open TOF seats and an election is
unnecessary.  Their terms will begin April 1st, 2022.

Thank you to Andrew, Jason and William for joining the TOF.  Much thanks also
to the TOF members rolling off (Deepak, Lei Yu, and Richard) for volunteering
to help get the TOF going and for your contributions in its establishment over
the last year.
