Nominations for candidates interested in serving on the TAB are currently being sought. The TAB serves as the interface between the kernel development community and the Linux Foundation, advising the Foundation on kernel-related matters, helping member companies learn to work with the community, and working to resolve community-related problems (preferably before they get out of hand). We also support the Code of Conduct committee in their mission. Over the last year, matters tended to by the TAB include proposals for developer workflow improvement, overseeing the Linux Plumbers Conference, supporting the review of the University of Minnesota patches and more. Minutes from TAB meetings can be found here: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/docs/tab/tab.git/tree/minutes The board has ten members, one of whom sits on the Linux Foundation board of directors. Half of the board (five members) is elected every year to serve a two-year term. The members whose terms are expiring this year are: Greg Kroah-Hartman Jonathan Corbet Sasha Levin Steven Rostedt Ted Ts'o The remaining members' terms will expire in 2022: Chris Mason (chair) Dan Williams Kees Cook Laura Abbott Christian Brauner The eligibility to run for the TAB is the same as the voting criteria: There exist three kernel commits in a mainline or stable released kernel that: - Have a commit date in the year 2020 or 2021 - Contain an e-mail address in one of the following tags or merged tags (e.g. Reviewed-and-tested-by) -- Signed-off-by -- Tested-by -- Reported-by -- Reviewed-by -- Acked-by Please send your nomination to: tech-board-discuss@lists.linux-foundation.org With your nomination, please include a short (<= 200 words) candidate statement focusing on why you are running and what you hope to accomplish on the TAB. We will be collecting these statements and making them publicly available. The deadline for receiving nominations is 9:00AM GMT-4 (US/Eastern) on September 20th (the first day of Kernel Summit). Due to the use of electronic voting, this will be a hard deadline! As always, please let us know if you have questions (the TAB can be reached at tab@lists.linuxfoundation.org), and please do consider running and encouraging others to vote.
