|
| |
+ == Selection
|
| |
+
|
| |
+ This section explains how the D&I Advisor is nominated and confirmed.
|
| |
+ The selection process documented below is initiated when a rotation of Advisors is motioned by the existing representative, the Fedora D&I Team, or the Fedora Council.
|
| |
+
|
| |
+ [[selection-nomination]]
|
| |
+ === Nomination
|
| |
+
|
| |
+ There will be a one-week nomination period for potential representatives.
|
| |
+ Nominees can be self-nominated or nominated by others with their consent.
|
| |
+ A prospective nominee should understand the dynamics of the Fedora D&I Team, a basic understanding of various Fedora sub-projects, and have sufficient time to perform the responsibilities required.
|
| |
+ Nominees are required to be members of the Fedora D&I Team.
|
| |
+
|
| |
+ In the event that there are no nominees, the D&I Team will work with the Council to broaden the search message and request more time.
|
| |
+ Should no nominees be found after that, the role will rotate among existing D&I Team members until the next representative is identified.
|
| |
+
|
| |
+ [[selection-confirmation]]
|
| |
+ === Confirmation
|
| |
+
|
| |
+ After the one-week nomination period expires, the Fedora D&I Team will discuss candidates in a public meeting.
|
| |
+ In a meeting discussion, it provides an opportunity for the team to weigh in and share other context.
|
| |
+ In the event that more than two nominees are both interested in the Advisor role, the Fedora D&I Team will coordinate with the xref:council::fpgm.adoc[Fedora Program Manager] to run an election.
|
| |
+
|
| |
+ For the Fedora Elections application, use these conditions:
|
| |
+
|
| |
+ * Nominee must be a member of `fedora-diversity` F.A.S. group
|
| |
+ * Voting is open to CLA+1 voters (like Council elections)
|
| |
+
|
| |
+ The selected person and the Council will be notified once the selection is confirmed.
|
| |
+ The selected person will begin serving as the D&I Advisor to the Council as soon as possible.

This commit makes the following changes:
This commit creates a new Antora module called
roles. This module willbe a place to collect profiles of team responsibilities and how you can
contribute to the team. For now, it will just feature the D&I Advisor
role, but I am excited to see this expand to other things too.
This commit also adds a first draft of the D&I Advisor role to the docs
page. This page was adapted from the existing document in the Council
docs repo:
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/council/diversity-advisor/
I used this as a base and modified it. I plan to follow up with a Pull
Request to the council-docs repo to remove that page and replace links
with redirects to the D&I Team docs page.
I did make changes though. I used the FESCo representative role page for
many of the additions around duration and the selection process:
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Fedora_Council_Engineering_Rep/
Closes #89. Finally!
