#39 Select new mindshare representative for the council
Closed: Complete 5 years ago Opened 5 years ago by nb.

I believe we should select a new mindshare representative for the council, since robyduck is unavailable. I believe someone mentioned at Flock that they had talked to @robyduck and that he is OK with being replaced on the council.


Hi, I want to propose myself as a member of Mindshare (Ambassador Representative: LATAM)

I can volunteer :)

@nb you beat me to it as I meant to file this ticket on Friday :D. I propose @sumantrom.

I was also interested in volunteering.

I propose Abdel Martinez @potty

So I"m confused here -- are we looking for a new mindshare representative from the community, who would also be the mindshare representative to the council? Or are we simply asking one of the other existing mindshare representatives to take over reporting to the council?

I need to know which if these we're asking for before I share my opinion.

@nb thanks, and the chair in the mindshare its not available?

Regards!

Actually, I withdraw my (self-)nomination. I support @sumantrom to be our representative on the council.

This is correct. The representative needs to be drawn from our existing membership. Unless I've misread it, I think the only member of mindshare in this list is @sumantrom. I suggest we make a decision on Wednesday, if possible.

This is correct. The representative needs to be drawn from our existing membership.

Have we ever defined this seat? The Council seat is not listed in the documented committee membership. The only seat filled by @robyduck currently is as the FAmA Ambassador representative.

By selecting a new Council rep, is it creating a new seat (as Council rep, separate from other Mindshare seats) or are designating a current member to represent to the Council (and their role as Council rep expires when their election term expires)? How should this work for someone who is not elected but nominated by a represented sub-project for an indefinite time period?

I think before this ticket is closed, we should first explain publicly what the Council representative does and how they are selected. Clearly there is already confusion since there were nominations for people not already on the committee.

@jflory7 My understanding is we are designating a current member to represent us to the Council. Not creating an additional seat on the mindshare committee. Perhaps this needs to be documented better.

On 26 September the committee selected @sumantrom
