Hi,
Reminder that the Linux Foundation Technical Advisory Board (TAB) annual
election will be held virtually during the 2021 Kernel Summit and Linux
Plumbers Conference. Voting will run from September 20th to September
23rd 16:00 GMT-4 (US/Eastern). The voting criteria for the 2021 election
are:
There exist three kernel commits in a mainline or stable released
kernel that both
- Have a commit date in the year 2020 or 2021
- Contain an e-mail address in one of the following tags or merged
tags (e.g. Reviewed-and-tested-by)
-- Signed-off-by
-- Tested-by
-- Reported-by
-- Reviewed-by
-- Acked-by
If you have more than 50 commits that meet this requirement you will
receive a ballot automatically.
If you have between 3 and 49 commits that meet this requirement please
e-mail [email protected] to request your ballot.
We strongly encourage everyone who meets this criteria to request a
ballot.
We will be using Condorcet Internet Voting
Service (CIVS) https://civs1.civs.us/ . This is a voting service
focused on security and privacy. There are sample polls on the
website if you would like to see what a ballot will look like.
If you have any questions please e-mail
[email protected].
Thanks,
Laura
P.S. Please also consider this another reminder to consider running for
the TAB as well

Final reminder: please remember to request your ballot for the TAB
elections. If you know others who are eligible please encourage
them to request a ballot as well.

When are the ballots supposed to be sent ? It would be nice to avoid
requiring everybody to check whether they're below or above the 50
commits threshold manually :-)

The ballots will be sent sometime after Monday September 20th
9:00am GMT-4 (US/Eastern).
I did make an attempt to send e-mails to the > 50 commits individuals
but there is a chance my e-mail got eaten by spam filters or just
didn't get sent out. I discovered Google Apps' e-mail limits and
that you should not attempt to bcc too many people. This is something
I'd like to handle in a more automated fashion next year to make
it easier for both voters and those running the elections.

You're welcome to my bulk email scripts I use for Plumbers. They
*should* work with any SMTP server but, obviously, I've only tested
them with my hansenpartnership.com one.

Does it mean I should ask for a ballot after the 20th if I don't get
one, or request one *before* ? I meet the above criteria but haven't
received any ballot yet, so I was unsure whether I should ask or wait.

So if we got the "look for your ballot" email from you, that means we're
on the list?
I agree with Laurent, it's a bit confusing now to figure out whether we
should request or not, and if we have to request before the automated
ones are sent out, we can't wait for that either.
I'm sure I'm on the list, but I guess others aren't quite so sure.

The intention was that if you were in the range of between 3-49 commits
you would ask for a ballot now.

Oh, I think this was clear - but someone might e.g. have 60 commits
spread between multiple email addresses, and not be sure how you
counted, etc.

Would it be possible to share the script that you are using to check in
which category a developer is, to avoid the criteria being applied in
slightly different ways ?

You should only request a ballot if you think you have between
3-49 commits. I agree this is a bit confusing and this should
have been worded better and we'll make sure to do better next
year.

Same request. Is this the same script that gets used to determine candidate
eligibility before they get added to the ballot?

You can thank Kees for the script

This is the same script for both voting and nomination
The set generated is

So people that this script spits out are the ones that are
eligible for the following:
-- get added to the ballot if they sent in the nomination
-- get sent a ballot by Sept 20th for voting
Also does this criteria get applied to TAB Chair/co-Chair election
going forward?

eligible.txt would be all people who can potentially vote. This is also
the set of people who can submit a nomination.
ballots.txt is all people who would be sent a ballot automatically.
If you are in eligible.txt but not in ballots.txt you may request
a ballot.

It does not.
