ClearlyDefined Elections

[Nick Vidal]

Hi all,

We are opening call for candidates to ClearlyDefined Steering and Outreach Committees. The Steering election will run October 1 during the weekly Developer's meeting, while the Outreach election will run October 6 during the monthly Community meeting. More information about the meeting times are available here: https://docs.clearlydefined.io/docs/community/meetings

The elections will follow ClearlyDefined's charter: https://docs.clearlydefined.io/docs/community/charter

The responsibilities of the Steering Committee are:

• setting the technical direction of the ClearlyDefined project, establishing main goals and identifying key technical priorities;
• overseeing all processes (harvest, curate, contribute, serve), ensuring that the underlying architecture enables these processes to run smoothly;
• empowering the community (data curator, data contributor, data consumer, and code committer/maintainer), providing all the technical support necessary to achieve ClearlyDefined's mission;
• establishing open collaboration with adjacent projects that are part of the ecosystem.

 
The responsibilities of the Outreach Committee are:

• planning and executing efforts to promote the ClearlyDefined project to potential users and contributors;
• organizing activities across events worldwide, both virtual and in person, to bring together existing community members and attract new ones;
• creating educational material (documentation, whitepapers, webinars, podcasts, etc) to help individuals and companies understand how to use and contribute to the ClearlyDefined project;
• managing communication across different channels (website, blog, social media, and press releases).

We look forward to seeing you at the developers and community meetings.

Kind regards,

Nick
