Call for Curb WG Steering Committee Leadership Nominations

[Michael Schnuerle]

Hello OMF Member Organizations, 

The Open Mobility Foundation (OMF) needs Working Group Steering Committee (WGSC) leadership for our Curb Data Specification (CDS) Working Group for a one year term.  These leaders guide the OMF working group community’s efforts, including:

  - Set a work plan for each release by defining release goals and prioritizing issues
  - Help run bi-weekly meetings and document decisions
  - Weigh in on Github issues/discussions
  - Adjudicate where consensus is elusive
  - Elevate issues to the appropriate OMF leadership committees
  - Make final decisions around what is included in each release candidate

The Steering Committee (SC) candidate mix should:

  - come from city government, mobility providers, and private companies
  - have policy chops, transportation experience, leadership skills, technical skills, and/or experience with managing volunteer open source contributors. We want a mix of skills and perspectives, so don't feel like you need all these.
  - expect to spend 2 to 4 hours per month on the role for a one-year term (attending more than half the planning meetings is required)
  - nominate only one member per member organization (city, agency, or company) but you may bring other people from your organization if you are elected

Please fill out this short application if you are interested. You MUST be part of an OMF Member organization.

FORM: https://forms.gle/EDr7g9AkEMFyvcCG8

DEADLINE for nominees is August 14, 2026. OMF Members and the working group will be sent the slate of new nominees after nominations close. 

Thanks,

Michael Schnuerle

Director of Open Source Operations
