Therefore, we are going to have to hold an election for the half.=20 The 7 nominated developers[1] are (alphabetical by Github IDs): * Andrew Jeffery * Brad Bishop * Deepak Kodihalli * Jagpal Gill * Jayanth Othayoth * Alexander Hansen * Patrick Williams A few key points about the election: - Voting is by Ranked Choice Voting. The order you give as your preference matters [2,3]. - TOF members represent the development community and not their companies. - Since there are 4 seats up for election, you may submit a vote with up to 4 candidates. With this being the most nominated-for election in TOF history, I would strongly encourage candidates to reply to this email with a [brief] campaign: who are you, what work have you done for the community, why do you want to be on the TOF, etc. Votes will be accepted until April 1st, 2026 at 12:00 GMT from qualified votes[4]. As with the last election, we have a tool to facilitate voting[5]. You are expected to fork the Github repository, run the tool, commit the resulting JSON file, and create a Pull-Request to submit your vote. If you have the `gh` tool this would be as follows: ``` gh repo fork --clone openbmc/tof-election cd tof-election =2E/vote --user # make your selections with 'vote N', 'save', 'quit' git add 2026H1/votes/.json git commit -s -m "2026H1: : add vote" git push origin gh pr create ``` [1]: https://github.com/openbmc/tof-election/blob/main/2026H1/candidates.js= on [2]: https://github.com/openbmc/docs/blob/master/tof/membership-and-voting.= md#terms-and-elections [3]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instant-runoff_voting [4]: https://github.com/openbmc/tof-election/blob/main/2026H1/rollcall.json [5]: https://github.com/openbmc/tof-election --=20 Patrick Williams --hLANepoibmdWEjjz Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJPBAABCAA5FiEEBGD9ii4LE9cNbqJBqwNHzC0AwRkFAmm7Bv0bFIAAAAAABAAO bWFudTIsMi41KzEuMTEsMiwyAAoJEKsDR8wtAMEZuXYP/AhtP6/Zm/BY2Qed+Liw xTtuOE86r/iPWgXaysisYPmeL+Lt+D5J2ZqGW+g/YZj+6hG7nG7Eeqcy2dg/4Yj1 JZiX+JXKCbL5nLUrDub9pKM9D+tX3WfuOBXP9fF0cK+cJkCYp6S92hodLa3PA0uy BiPRB14bfVCCiN1E23kyAomeDdDisVXI1VU6N6pa3Dz/DClJOPlIilTt2UQUuWhA 3PGmZeelyuPooM1X/FJ9bDmURjRR2+ZvScdOoHtb10eTpYOJF+dA3Fey8uR7bWuF MYFJ4sMiW7ag519lzkP7sTsnc9OxbtTJBx3rca5kkuvHsHStaFEu/1LYPjZpsr/F VEsFmAtvcyC/YC4XB/gYpopED58WP8X+hVmdmbceiefiiGt5xviRMyxkEUQDkLXA xvpKQDOipExAKOjGtBb/9+IRgzvshobU9G09mSr1znOI11vc5YpOlyGBCUk3/Gfe F9rTwe0LaDiZ+g9RqsvXVi2+4Aco7RTcYMfaOfILVTl+hIudAKUPYYUcLMttN9vf iAlSGrC3q7lA//1RFg33/A7lUOjgLsGWRaq2fHd57GaVxw0nhEYxTN/OimcQzVGE OBc4gE/w6AKCxD3j/RmFJ9we/rqoWnJQvBv9ocI6v9HVeNFW1vjiRyHdyYQGc6/6 UqbO3m+F3uAoCJ9bh0mY3QMH =dMxq -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --hLANepoibmdWEjjz--
