OpenChain Automation Work Group Election (was: Re: [openchain] OpenChain Reference Tooling Work Group - Third Wednesday Meeting - Jan 18, 2023 14:00 to 15:00, UTC)


 

Understood! Let’s fix this.

Oliver has been very busy in recent times and Jan has stepped forward to help run the group. However, we did not have a formal Chair and Vice Chair or Co-Chair election. This means we are relying on an informal process to run the meetings. I suggest we have the election now to help the Automation Work Group have consistency moving forward.

Let’s run the election over the next one and a half weeks. 

  1. Please self-nominate by January 25th (Wednesday).
  2. If we have two or fewer nominees, they will automatically become Co-Chairs. If we have more, we will run an election from 26th to 30th. 
  3. Based on the results we will announce the new Co-Chairs.

Once we have our new setup, the Co-Chairs can decide the schedule and agenda for February onward. If there is a delay in confirming the chairs or setting the schedule, the February 1st call will be rescheduled.

Just to clarify: do you mean you entered the room on January 18th at 14:00 UTC (15:00 CET)? The tooling work group was scheduled for this time.

Checking because your mail arrived on January 20th.
