Elections of the representative of Participating members to the Steering Committee

Our Charter describes the Steering Committee composition like that:

• Each Steering Committee member of the IWG has a seat on the Steering Committee.
• At least one seat is allocated to participant members. An additional seat on the committee shall be allocated to the participant members for every additional five (5) seats beyond one (1) allocated to Steering Committee members. Participant member seats are allocated following the Eclipse "single transferable vote", as defined in the Eclipse Bylaws.

For the moment, we have 3 Participating members: Intecs, Obeo and Soyatec.

Thus, Polarsys Participating members have to elect one representative to the Polarsys Steering Committee.

Here is the process for this election:

• Until September 24th, Participating members representative can candidate for the election. They have to post their candidature on the Polarsys mailing list.
• From September 25th to October 1st, mailing list members will be able to ask questions on the mailing list to candidates
• From October 2nd to October 8th, Participating members will cast their vote to emo@eclipse.org.
• The vote will close on October 8th.

As indicated during the telco, Gaël Blondelle will candidate for Obeo to continue the work done to bootstrap Polarsys.
