Draft NomCom Process

Version 5 (Redmine Admin, 02/21/2014 03:44 PM) → Version 6/8 (Andre Merzky, 03/18/2014 09:16 AM)

h1. Draft NomCom Process

h2. NomCom Process as defined in "GFD.116":http://www.ogf.org/documents/GFD.116.pdf

* NomCom is elected by community, from active members
* receives list of open positions
* issues call for nominations
** NomCom members are not eligible for free management positions
** nominations for President comes from Board
** nominations for VP and AD come from community
* check availability of nominees
* evaluate nominees
* deliberates over candidate selection
* proposes candidates to board (1 per AD, list per VP/President)
* Board will agree to AD nominations, select/elect VP/President

h2. Proposed Amendments

* OGF Board is largely inactive / sparsely populated
** allow president nominations from community
** transfer some decisions on positions to GFSG

* size of OGF is small
** task NomCom with possible extensions of AD terms

h2. Proposed Amendments -- Verbose

Over the last The OGF Board has shrunk in its visibility and activity, and at this point represents the bare legal minimum, operating on the minimal set of required activities.

In the 'OGF Management Amendments' section will also propose several measures to address the board functionality, but specifically in the context if the NomCom process, we propose the following adjustments to the NomCom process:

* allow nominations for OGF Presidents from the wider OGF community (at the moment, only the board can nominate presidential candidates).
* transfer the following decisions to GFSG:
** agree to AD (re)election
** agree to VP (re)election
** agree to President (re)election

As the size of OGF (in numbers of active members) has been shrinking over time, and it has been increasingly difficult to find candidates for certain OGF positions. In those cases, we consider it a viable strategy to allow ADs, VPs and Presidents to serve longer than their originally allotted term (see 'OGF Management Amendments' section). In fact, that change would only reconfirm and formalize what is current practice. NomComs duties should be extended to cover the candidate re-confirmation process for such term extensions. The reconfirmation process should provide the opportunity for both sides, OGF and candidate, to re-evaluate the current role, and to re-affirm time commitment.
