Dear working group, Dear RIPE community, The two weeks period to express preferences for one (or more) of the candidates to the open co-chair position is over. First and foremost: thanks to everyone who actively participated in the mailing list. After the somehow unusual traffic in the list during the past two weeks, Martin and I decided that we would like to prioritize the voices of active participants in the working group or the RIPE community at large towards the voices of those who could not be identified as such. Trying to find hard criteria for this is not easy, but nevertheless we had to, so this is the result of our deliberations: We will not consider the vote of those who a) were not subscribed to the RIPE open source mailing list as of the beginning of the voting window (last 30th November, day of the OSS wg meeting) AND b) have not attended a single RIPE meeting since RIPE 80, neither in presence nor remote. A bit of rationale about the latter: we took RIPE 80 because it is the point in time where Meetecho support was mature enough for the RIPE meeting to be organized completely virtual (admittedly, in kind of involuntary manner 😉). That entails everyone wanting to join a meeting could have done so, even if lacking the financial means. We believe that we want votes from the active community who is involved in the future and was involved in the past with the Open Source WG / RIPE and are familiar with our past work and the candidates for the new WG chair position. As such, we do believe that new signups with no prior history of involvement in the community should not qualify to vote this time. We do believe that we have three excellent candidates and each of them has some great skills, but understanding the skills required to further improve this group is hard to be judged by anyone who was never part of RIPE. Please do not misunderstand this step as a sign of hostility towards newcomers: you are and always be welcome to join the community at anytime and to start participating in our open source arena as of now! We have presented this process and its rationale to the RIPE chair and no opposition was expressed for us to move ahead. Based on these criteria we’ll now review all expressions of support in the mailing list and plan to provide you with an outcome as soon as possible. If you think we are making a wrong decision, please speak up within the next few days.
