[Colin Eberhardt (He/Him)]

Dear FINOS Community,

The FINOS Technical Oversight Committee is up for elections! There are 10 vacant seats and today we’re announcing the opening for candidacies, starting on Wednesday 22 May and closing on Wednesday 5 June. Given the amount of seats, we decided to split voting in 2 rounds, one in June and one in July (full timeline below).

If you’re either an active contributor of a FINOS project or an employee of a (FINOS) member organization, you can follow these simple steps to submit your candidacy:

1. Review TOC responsibilities and ways of working; feel free to contact help@finos.org if you have any questions.
2. Open a Github issue on https://github.com/finos/technical-oversight-committee/issues with the following information:
1. Title: [TOC Candidacy] <full name of the candidate>
2. Affiliation: <name of the company you work for ; if not applicable, type “Independent”>
3. Bio
4. Reasons for candidacy: <member OR active contributor of project x,y,z or both>

Below the full timeline:

• Wednesday 22 May - candidacy opens
• Wednesday 5 June - candidacy closes and first round of voting opens (5 seats)
• Wednesday 12 June - first round voting closes
• Friday 14 June - new TOC members are announced
• Friday 5 July - second round of voting opens (5 seats)
• Friday 12 July - second round of voting closes

This is a fantastic opportunity to influence the direction of FINOS, through providing knowledge and insight.

Regards, Colin E.
