Hi Shaun, question about this .. Eventually I do plan to put my hat in the ring, but possibly not this time around - I'll most likely wait for someone from RH to retire. How many Red Hatters are currently on the board, and should we replace Tru with a RH person? I realize it isn't a requirement to be (or not to be) from RH, but I think the board will be healthier if there are more non-RH people there, and since Tru is not RH it would make more sense for someone else to take the opportunity. thanks Jeffrey "Jefro" Osier-Mixon | jefro at redhat.com Red Hat Office of the CTO | Sr. Principal Community Architect, Automotive On Thu, Jun 9, 2022 at 10:46 AM Shaun McCance <shaunm at redhat.com> wrote: > ** Please read this entire email before responding with nominations. > ** We have a process, and the process is important. > > As per our governance docs: > https://www.centos.org/about/governance/board/ > Every six months, half of our directors are asked if they wish to > continue in their seats or step down.
