Open Stack

This page is now live, which means you can begin nominating members for the upcoming January Board election.  We've worked to improve the nomination system so that it's more automated (for example, if you receive a nomination you will get an email).  If you run into any bugs, please let me know.

https://www.openstack.org/election/2013-board-election/

Instructions and useful links can be found there.

Thanks to Tim Bell, Lloyd Dewolf, and Vincent Untz for volunteering to help with the page content.

Profiles for all members are also live.  You can log on to your profile at openstack.org/profile to update it, and you will find useful Election related links there as well.

>> TL;DR: UPDATE YOUR PROFILE AT OPENSTACK.ORG/PROFILE BY 11/26
>>
>> On Monday, November 26, we will be publishing public profiles for all members,
>> which will include a subset of the information members provided when joining:
>> - Name- Affiliation(s)- Statement of Interest- IRC Handle- Twitter Handle-
>> Projects involved with- Join Date- Your Nominations- Photo (coming soon,
>> optional).

>> We are also working on an overall election page to go live 11/26 which will live
>> here: http://www.openstack.org/election/2013-board-election/ and provide clear

>> with the content for that page, let me know. I plan to start with the basic info
>> from 2012 page (http://www.openstack.org/election/2012-board-election/), update
>> and expand to ensure we are as clear and informative as possible.
