[OpenStack Foundation] bylaws change proposed for multiple Vice Chairs
by Allison Randal 21 Feb '21

21 Feb '21

Hi everyone, In the January 26th board meeting, we discussed the process for electing multiple individuals to the role of Vice Chair, and noted that a small bylaws change would be necessary to make this possible. After a few rounds of refinement and legal review, here's the proposed update to the bylaws, allowing more than one Vice Chair. I've attached it as plain text, and as a PDF showing the differences in the update. The sentence about the Vice Chairs standing in for the Chairman mentions the "order" of the Vice Chairs. The intention here is that the Chairman and the Vice Chairs will set a rotation schedule, so at any point in the year everyone knows which Vice Chair is "on call" to stand in for the Chairman. This can be as simple as alternating months (for example, Alice is on call in March, Bob is on call in April, Alice is on call again in May, etc...), but leaving the schedule up to the Chairman and Vice Chairs gives us flexibility to easily change it if one of the Vice Chairs needs to swap out a month for a family holiday, or busy month at work, or whatever might come up. The alternation allows a fair division of work between the Vice Chairs. This proposed bylaws change will be up for discussion and vote in the upcoming board meeting on March 2nd. Thanks, Allison

[OpenStack Foundation] [all] [board] [diversity][events][ptg][forum][summit] New OpenInfra IRC Channels!
by Kendall Nelson 17 Feb '21

17 Feb '21

Hello Everyone! As you might have seen, there was a ML post[1] earlier this year/end of last year discussing openinfra -ing some of our openstack channels to make them more inclusive. The process is almost done! We now have the follow channels in place: - #openinfra (to replace #openstack-foundation) - #openinfra-board (to replace #openstack-board) - #openinfra-events (to replace #openstack-ptg, #openstack-forum, #openstack-summit, and #openinfra-summit ) - #openinfra-diversity (ro replace #openstack-diversity) Our last step is to kick people from the old channels which we plan to do at the end of the month. All the archives for the old channels remain on eavesdrop here[2]. We have setup redirects so that when people try to join the old channels, they will now be directed to the new ones. See you in open infra land! Thanks! -Kendall (diablo_rojo) & fungi [1] http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/foundation/2020-December/002920.html [2] http://eavesdrop.openstack.org/irclogs/
