CII has it's own technical advisory board, and always could use people to help out with that as help in that area is greatly appreciated. No need to be on the TAB at all. I think the CII's tech board is up for new elections sometime soon, contact the CII project lead if you are interested in doing this type of work. thanks, greg k-h ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread

Thanks. Updated statement: I'm standing for election to the Technical Advisory Board. Within the kernel, I work on tinification, and have an interest in embedded/IoT issues; I care deeply about reversing the near-inexorable trend of kernel size increases, and I'm glad to see that with metrics now available as part of the 0-day kernel bot, the problem has become far more widely recognized and dealt with. I also serve as a reviewer for RCU patches and synchronization issues. The Linux kernel community, through interactions with a wide variety of tools, toolchains, and userspace programs, also tends to build up accurate impressions about the importance, quality, and maintenance status of numerous pieces of software. I'd like to help maintain an ongoing dialogue between the TAB and the Core Infrastructure Iniative project, to help seek solutions for these discoveries of critical software in our stacks that we all depend on but that nobody wants to step up to help maintain. - Josh Triplett ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread

I had the impression that, informally, the two boards talked/consulted with each other, and I'd like to help in that regard; my intention was purely collaborative, not direction-setting. :) The Linux kernel community, through interactions with a wide variety of tools, toolchains, and userspace programs, tends to build up accurate impressions about the importance, quality, and maintenance status of numerous pieces of software. My goal is simply to use one to inform the other, and in particular to help seek solutions for random discoveries of infrastructure gaps. Thanks for the heads-up that the CII tech board is also seeking nominations soon. In any case, I'll follow up to Steve with an updated nomination statement. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread
