Thank you Ted and your colleagues for hosting our election!
Krzysztof and Martin, welcome to the board! As Ted said, please make
sure you have subscribed to inkscape-board@ with the email addresses you
plan to conduct your Inkscape business with. Please also make sure your
profile at inkscape.org is fully filled in (Jon and Ted, you also need
to put something in there.)
I've added both of you to the inkscape.board team in Launchpad. This
gives you read and write access to our board-docs repository, which is
where we handle proposals for votes.
Requests and suggestions for votes can come from anyone (not just board
members), but the first step is to draft a Proposal. There is a file
proposals/TEMPLATE with the recommended sections to include; basically
we like to have a clear and precise statement of what's to be voted on,
along with a background section that explains the concept and why it's
important. If there are special tasks that will need to be done, call
those out and identify the assignees or how assignees will be
determined. Often it's a good idea to float an idea on the mailing list
to gather feedback, especially for things that might be controversial or
involve a lot of money.
Once it's ready to go, notify the Chair (me) to review and post the
proposal for the board. (I can also handle writing up the proposal,
although I _really_ appreciate it when others handle the drafting.)
The Chair is responsible for collecting the votes and notifying the
Conservancy. Where money is involved, Conservancy typically handles the
reimbursement and often the purchasing as well.
Completed proposals are then moved to the resolutions directory in the
board-docs repository.
I think that covers the mechanics of how the board works. One important
point I should bring to your attention is the importance of casting your
votes. Our new Fiscal Sponsorship Agreement specifies that board
members must participate in the voting as a requirement of membership;
see the FSA for details on this requirement. If you're going to be
unable to vote for an extended period, there's provision given for grace
periods - just let us know your timeframe and we'll sort out details.
Again, thanks for your service,
Bryce
