The TAB advises the Foundation on kernel-related matters, helps member companies learn to work with the community, and works to resolve community-related problems before they get out of hand. The board has ten members, one of whom sits on the LF board of directors. The election to select five TAB members will be held at the 2017 Kernel Summit in Prague, Czech Republic. The elections will take place at the conference center on Wednesday Oct 25th, shortly before the evening reception. The election will be open to all attendees of all of the Linux Foundation events taking place that week in Prague. 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 here: https://goo.gl/ADVFtT The deadline for receiving nominations is up until the beginning of the election event. Any statements for the online document need to be sent by Monday Oct 23rd. Please get your nomination in early so everyone has a chance to review the nominations before voting. 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.
