#2895 Election interview questions: FESCo (F37)
Closed: Accepted a year ago by bcotton. Opened a year ago by bcotton.

In order to move forward with the next election, we need to determine which mandatory questions FESCo would like to have asked of candidates.

We need FESCo to please identify the questions before 2022-11-30 so we can properly communicate them to candidates and so they enough time to answer them.

In case the selection is not complete by 30 November, I will use the same set of questions as the last election cycle:

  • Why do you want to be a member of FESCo and how do you expect to help steer the direction of Fedora?
  • How do you currently contribute to Fedora? How does that contribution benefit the community?
  • With the advent of CentOS Stream, where do you think Fedora
    stands now and what should be the plans for the future?
  • What else should community members know about you or your positions?

Some additional questions are listed in the wiki, or you may come up with new ones.


With the advent of CentOS Stream, where do you think Fedora stands now and what should be the plans for the future?

I belive this was kinda settled and maybe needs to be replaced with a different question.

I'd love a question in here around conflict resolution and how candidates might work to resolve differences they have with other members of FESCo and the overall Fedora community. I can try to wordsmith something if others think this is a good idea.

Please do.

@mhayden Could you have a first pass at this ready for tomorrow's meeting? We could wordsmith it there to finalize it.

@sgallagh After some digging through some examples, it seems like this one could be good:

How do you handle disagreements when working as part of a team?

Source: Indeed

My goal here is to better understand situations where some people want X but others want Y. I'd like to know more about approaches towards making compromises or re-framing the conversation to persuade others.

#agreed Replace the CentOS Stream question with "How do you handle disagreements when working as part of a team?" (+6, 0, -0)

Proceeding with:

  • Why do you want to be a member of FESCo and how do you expect to help steer the direction of Fedora?
  • How do you currently contribute to Fedora? How does that contribution benefit the community?
  • How do you handle disagreements when working as part of a team?
  • What else should community members know about you or your positions?
