Delegation

Revision 10 as of 2008-08-22 08:50:29

Clear message

The CommunityCouncil decided to set up individual Team Councils for teams that have proven to be well organised and need their own governance body. Also the CommunityCouncil has decided to delegate tasks like Ubuntu membership approval to some of them.

Reporting

In the CC meeting of 2008 April 15th we decided that we would like to see all Councils participate in Team reporting.

Team Council member election

Once a Team Council is set up, the following process is proposed to determine replacements in the Team Council.

  • We call for nominations, to be made to the team council or the community council in confidence. People can nominate themselves, or others, and the councils will contact the nominees to ensure they are willing to be considered.
  • it is recommended to ask the nominees to add relevant information for the election to their personal wiki pages (eg: activities in the relevant team and specific interests today, thoughts about the most important challenges of the team in the next year, what you'd like to see change in the team, work to focus on as a member of the Team Council)
  • the Team Council sends the full list of nominees with comments and annotations to the CommunityCouncil (in the case of the MOTU Council also to the TB)

  • The CC (and TB) will determine a shortlist of candidates and set up Launchpad polls accordingly so team members can vote.

  • The polls might take the form of confirmation votes or of a race between more candidates than the available seats on the Team Council.
