[Fiware-platinum-members] IMPORTANT: Election of "remarkable individuals" participating in the FIWARE Technical Steering Committee

[Juanjo Hierro]

Dear member representative,

   According to the FIWARE bylaws 
<https://www.fiware.org/foundation/bylaws/>, The FIWARE TSC is the body 
where technical decisions are taken and follows up on the evolution of 
the different FIWARE components (incubated or consolidated).  Also where 
technical roadmap discussions take place.  The FIWARE Technical Steering 
Committee (TSC) shall be renewed on a yearly basis and this mail is to 
report on progress of the current elections and also give you the chance 
to participate.

   The FIWARE TSC is composed by:

  * **One representative of each Platinum Member (PM)**
  * ******Two representatives of each FIWARE Chapter, elected by the
    corresponding FIWARE Chapter Active Contributors**
  * **Remarkable Individual Members elected by the whole group of
    Chapter Active Contributors, up to one third of the number of
    Chapter Leaders plus PM representatives.**

**The full list of FIWARE Chapter Active Contributors can be found here 
<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1V6Z9efLoZGubjudO8KQHtd6zVVPyQqqK13CH8WQrLS8/edit?usp=sharing>.

   Election of FIWARE TSC seats take place in two rounds:

  * First round, representatives of FIWARE Chapters are elected
  * Second round, remarkable individuals are elected

   The first step in the election process has been completed with the 
election of representatives of the several FIWARE Chapters. This is a 
process organized within each chapter.   Election of these seats has 
been completed today and results can be found in the table below:

   Now, it comes the time for election of remarkable individuals. Up to 
9 seats will be completed through this process.

   This will take place in two steps:

    1. Reception of Candidatures:

      o If you wish to candidate for a seat, please add your candidature
        to the following table
        <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1rBMJM8muHzkcE7CEYhZPd_9fD9Do8q3MFXcEH3rjOPA/edit?usp=sharing>.
        As you will see, there is a space for you to provide a pitch.
      o Deadline for reception of candidatures: Monday June 22nd, 14:00 CET

    2. Election among candidates:

      o A process will be put in place for FIWARE Chapter Active
        Contributors to cast their vote on candidatures.  This process
        will be communicated on June 22nd
      o Deadline for voting: Sunday June 28th, EOD CET

   The final list of FIWARE TSC members will be announced on June 29th.

   Note that election of remarkable individuals is open to any 
individual member of the FIWARE Foundation, despite voting on candidates 
is limited to FIWARE Chapter Active Contributors.  They are expected to 
be candidates that meet merits in terms of relevant contribution to 
FIWARE from a technical point of view. Note that candidates should bear 
in mind that the FIWARE TSC members are expected to meet every Monday 
from 10:30 to 12:30 CET.   We expect FIWARE TSC members to join 
regularly and participate actively in the discussions.  Besides, FIWARE 
TSC members are expected to participate as individual and see for the 
interest of FIWARE and the FIWARE Community, not representing the 
interest of their organization.   In this respect, as individual FIWARE 
Foundation members they are committed to follow the FIWARE Code of 
Conduct <https://www.fiware.org/foundation/code-of-conduct/> (note that 
you may run as candidate even if you are not yet individual member but 
you have to become individual member to make your election valid).

   Last but not least, I would like to take advantage to remind that 
everyone in the FIWARE Community is welcome to join the FIWARE TSC 
meetings since they are public, even if they are not elected members.  
That is always a great opportunity to follow-up on progress of the 
different FIWARE components and roadmap plans. You can find all the 
minutes of previous FIWARE TSCs with instructions how to join here
