OpenEmbedded e.V. membership status announcement

OpenEmbedded e.V. membership status announcement

[Denys Dmytriyenko]

All,

In accordance with OpenEmbedded e.V. statutes, members that were absent from 
two or more consecutive annual General Assembly meetings and didn't have 
anyone representing them by proxy, forfeit their active membership status and 
can no longer vote in any OE e.V. election. Thus, the current up-to-date 
membership roster is one of the blocking items for any election process.

After collating the attendance records and all gathered proxy forms from past 
years GA meetings, the Board of Directors came up with the following list of 
inactive members - see below.

Realizing, that some people may still be active in other capacities in the 
OpenEmbedded e.V. organization, or just wish to renew their active status, the 
Board of Directors would like to open up a two-week period for inactive 
members to state their intent to become active, after which we should be able 
to vote for reinstating them back.

The Board will make an effort to contact inactive members directly by email, 
or please feel free to reply to this announcement with your intent. Thanks.

The list of e.V. members to become inactive, based on GA attendance:

===========================
Alessandro Gardich
Andreas Oberritter
Andrei Gherzan
Chris Larson
Cliff Brake
Daniel Willmann
Dirk Hohndel
Dirk Opfer
Dmitry Eremin­Solenikov
Esben Haabendal
Florian Boor
Frans Meulenbrooks
Graham Gower
Holger Freyther
Jan Lübbe
Jason Kridner
John Willis
Joshua Lock
Ken Gilmer
Liam Girdwood
Marcin Juszkiewicz
Mark Brown
Michael Lauer
Michael Smith
Philip Blundell
Phillip Zabel
Robert Schuster
Roman I Khimov
Steve Sakoman
Tom King
Tom Rini
Yu Ke
Yury Bushmelev
===========================

Please let us know of any concerns or comments. Thanks.

[Andreas Oberritter]

Hi Denys, everybody,

I guess I'm still active in a way or another, but didn't feel like
showing up at random places around the globe or filling out a form for
votes about topics I don't know about in advance once a year. When I
read the wiki page of the GA 2014, I can't even figure out what I could
have voted for, aside from new members, after it took place. So the
proxying doesn't really work, at least for me.

Regards,
Andreas

Hi, Andreas,

Thank you for replying back and letting us know that you are still active - 
I'll add you to the list of people to get reinstated.

We do realize that current e.V. statutes may be a bit unfair in this regard, 
that is why the Board of Directors has been working towards proposing a new 
structure for the organization and drafting new bylaws. Though, major items 
like this is what GA meetings are for...

[skipped a list with my name in it]

While I'm an active user and sporadically active contributor to OE,
I'm not a frequent visitor to the conferences, where GA take place :(
I tried using proxies for GA attendance, but it did not work for
various reasons. So I'm OK with being listed as an 'inactive' member.
Hoping that I will be able to become formally 'active' again, if I
become active wrt. e.V in real life.
