We are hoping to be approved for SFC membership and with that in mind we need nominations for signatories.

Signatories should be individuals who have made substantial contributions to Etherpad.  Their role will be to ensure we fulfill our legal obligations and our goals moving forward.

Nominees can choose to accept/decline their nomination.  Ideally we will have ~5 signatories but fewer is fine.  I want to make the process as democratic as possible hence why I'm using the mailing list.  Please nominate a maximum of 3 people, 2 is ideal.

Please also add +1 response if you want to show your support for a nominee.  Ideally in the format of (Example) "Peter Martischka +1"

I would like to nominate:
  • Peter Martischka
  • Egil Moller
Further reading:  Our commitment to SFC is well documented in this Fiscal Sponsorship Agreement template.

Actually, the idea was that you can nominate up to 2 *new* people, but
you can +1 as many as you'd like.

I'm happy with whoever. Unfortunately I don't really have any (new) nominations either :/

Thanks for the nomination guys, I'm going to be emailing out to nominees asking if they wish to fulfill their duties over the next few hours.
