The Fedora Council has moved to a once per year elections schedule. The next elections takes place at the end of the Fedora Linux 43 release cycle:
- Council (two seats)
The elected positions cover Fedora's subprojects not under the engineering or outreach banners (Documentation, Translation, etc.), and the community at large. One specific responsibility is to represent the voice of individual contributors to the Fedora project. Each representative may also work on specific goals they may bring to the Council as highlighted during the election process.
See the Council docs for more details regarding Council goals and structure.
Council Elections F44
The following Council members are finishing their term after the F43 release, and these seats are up for re-election:
- Aleksandra Fedorova (bookwar)
- Miro Hrončok (churchyard)
Voting eligibility is determined by a community member's Fedora Accounts group memberships.
To vote for the Council you must have cla_done in FAS.
A set of questions for nominees is prepared by existing Council members. Nominees are requested to answer the selected questions using private issue in Pagure. In compliance with Fedora Council decision #135 nominees not having completed their interviews (as a private issue in Pagure) are excluded from the list of nominees.
