Hi everyone. This is a heads up about the upcoming SPI board
elections. The primary purpose of this notice is to give some time to
people to think about running for a board position. We have three
seats available for a three year term:

* President
* General board member
* General board member

The formal nomination period will open on Monday, 1st July 2019 and
run for a bit over two weeks. Elections, if required, will then run
and results annouanced at the end of the month.

* Monday July 1st 2019 00:00 UTC - Nominations open
* Monday July 15th 2019 23:59 UTC - Nominations close
* Wednesday July 17th 2019 00:00 UTC - Voting commences
* Tuesday July 30th 2019 23:59 UTC - Voting closes
* Wednesday July 31st 2019 UTC - Results announced

Potential board members should be able to commit to attending the
monthly board meetings, which are conducted publicly via IRC (#spi on
the OFTC network). These take place at 20:00 UTC on the second
Monday of every month. More details, including all past agendas and
minutes, can be found at http://spi-inc.org/meetings/

The ideal candidate will have an existing involvement in the Free and
Open Source community, though this need not be with a project
affiliated with SPI.

Please do take the opportunity to ask any questions you may have about
SPI board membership on the spi-general mailing list before the formal
nomination period opens. You can also find various board members
present on #spi on irc.spi-inc.org (OFTC).
