Asunto: Open Source WG Chair selection - Looking for candidates

 

Dear all,

 

it's two months until the next fall RIPE meeting - and this means it's time
again for a Working Group Chair Selection.

 

Our working group has currently 3 chairs:

* Marco d'Itri (Since RIPE 90) 

* Sasha Romjin (Since RIPE 88) 

* Marcos Sanz (Since RIPE 84) 

 

None of us is currently considering stepping down as a WG chair, however we
would like to hear from the community if there are any candidates willing to
step up. Depending on the resonance and on the specific candidate(s), I
personally (as the longest standing chair) would consider either withdrawing
from further terms or standing myself for re-selection against the new
candidate(s).

 

Criteria/Expectations of a WG chair: 

- You have attended multiple physical RIPE meetings before (and are familiar
with how RIPE works) 

- You will be attending most RIPE meetings while serving as a chair in
person 

- You will attend this Fall meeting session (Physical or Virtual) 

 

For more details, see the Guide for New RIPE Working Group Chairs (
<https://www.ripe.net/publications/docs/ripe-765/>
https://www.ripe.net/publications/docs/ripe-765/) or the RIPE Working Group
Chair e-learning course ( <https://academy.ripe.net/course/info.php?id=16>
https://academy.ripe.net/course/info.php?id=16).

 

If you are interested in serving as a WG chair: Nomination period is until
Sept 19th, 2025, 23:59 UTC. Send an email to
<mailto:[email protected]> [email protected] to make
us aware of your candidacy before this deadline. In the email, please
include a short biography and a statement about why you are interested in
this position.

 

The day after the aforementioned deadline we will send an email to the list
with all candidates, their submitted bio and with a summary of previous RIPE
attendance. Then we will open a discussion thread on the list for feedback,
statement of support for specific candidates and any other feedback in
regard to them.

 

In parallel, the working group chairs will conduct interviews with all
candidates (and would politely ask them to make time for these calls and get
back to us in a timely manner). Time is short and we need to be prepared
before the meeting!

 

Please be aware, these are not elections, but selections. The ultimate
decision is taken by the remaining WG chairs as all the chairs need to work
together.

 

Marcos (for all current WG co-chairs)
