[libreoffice-users] Re-election of the TDF Membership Committee

Hi :)
This is totally awesome imo.  Quite a few of us never made it to becoming members so we might have 
some issues with it but basically i think this is all quite awesome.  

Most organisations i have ever heard of that intended to become "community led" never quite got 
this far.  They almost invariably got stuck with day-to-day problems and delayed this step towards 
truely becoming what they intended.  

There seems to be a slight gender imbalance at the top despite many of the lists having a 
significant number of their best people being non-male.  Jean, Hazel (docs), Regina (on this list), 
Eliane (marketing), Sophia (BoD) and others.  I really hope that some step forwards to give this 
organisation a bit more balance and help by diversifying the ideas that reach the top layers of TDF 
and help strengthen TDF by being part of it at such high levels.  

Regards from
Tom :)

Dear supporters of The Document Foundation,

after the election of the board, and the formal establishing of TDF
earlier this year, it is now time to seat the last body of our entity
with people elected by the members of The Document Foundation.

To facilitate that, all seat holders of our initial membership
committee safe two have now resigned, giving the board the
opportunity to hold a re-election according to § 12 III of our
statutes.

The board hereby announces elections to the MC, starting             

 2012-09-09 00:00 UTC

and lasting until

 2012-09-16 23:59 UTC

Nomination period for candidates will open

 2012-08-10 00:00 UTC.

All members of The Document Foundation as of 2012-07-01 are eligible
to vote, and to run for a seat. Members may self-nominate. 

With best regards,

--
