Re: Congrats and Questions!

Short answer is yes and this path exists somewhat already, many CNCF members did end up nominating contributors, of the 30+ nominees many of them were already TOC Contributors. It was very competitive this time around: https://civs.cs.cornell.edu/cgi-bin/results.pl?num_winners=6&id=E_c93ca3b3af0efa64&rkey=2a4b133473e1255c&algorithm=runoff

There are some thoughts long term to diversify representation of the seats (may include more end user and maintainer representation), but we plan carving out a time next Tuesday at the TOC meeting to discuss this with the wider community and share the initial TOC thoughts.

Is the CNCF trying to create a path for TOC Contributors to grow into the TOC? I think its a good thing when folks who are consistently showing up and doing the work are rewarded for it. If we want TOC contributors to stick around, might I suggest that we think carefully about how we make sure they are not squeezed out come election time by new candidates showing up at the 11th hour?

Hi,

Congrats to all the folks on the brand-new TOC! :) I spotted a few concerns in the community around the TOC election and wanted to see if anyone had thoughts about them. 

One was around diversity and the other one was the electorate that gets to vote in the TOC election. Please see examples [1][2][3][4]. 

Thanks,
Dims
