We're starting the nomination process for our top committer, community and top documentarian awards.

• CNCF Top Committer: This will recognize excellence in technical contributions to CNCF and its projects. The CNCF Top Committer has made key commits to projects and, more importantly, contributes in a way that benefits the project neutrally as a whole.

• CNCF Chop Wood Carry Water: This is given to a community member who helps behind the scenes, dedicating countless hours of their time to open source projects + completing often thankless tasks for the ecosystem’s benefit. The winner of this award will be chosen by the TOC and CNCF Staff.

• CNCF Top Documentarian: This will recognize excellence in documentation contributions to CNCF and its projects. Excellent technical documentation is one of the best ways projects can lower the barrier for contribution and build a more inclusive community.

Timeline:  

Nominations Open: September 19

Nominations Close: September 30 at noon Pacific

Voting period:

Voting opens: September 30

Voting closes: October 7th at noon Pacific

We'll be announcing the awards at KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America.

 

CNCF Maintainers are eligible to vote for the Top Committer
