[GRASS-user] Announcing GRASS PSC elections 2024

[Veronica Andreo]

Dear GRASS community,

We have GRASS GIS Project Steering Committee (PSC) elections this year!


By mid October 2024 we'll be *renewing 4 seats in the GRASS board*. The
seats open for election are those of: Helena Mitasova, Helmut Kudrnovsky,
Martin Landa and Michael Barton.


- Who can be nominated to PSC and who can nominate?


Everyone can nominate and be nominated for GRASS PSC, and we also encourage
self-nominations.


Usually, the nomination procedure is as follows:

1. You contact the person you want to nominate privately.

2. If they accept the nomination, you should privately contact the Chief
Returning Officer (CRO) including name, contact e-mail and shortly why the
person is recommended for GRASS PSC.

3. The CRO will then contact the recommended person asking for
confirmation. The nominated person has to accept the candidacy and will be
asked to write a few lines stating what they want to achieve.

4. Following confirmation, it is the CRO's task to officially announce the
nomination.


- Who can vote?


As discussed during the past PSC meetings, voters are recognized community
members that meet one or more of the following criteria:

- have one or more merged pull requests in any of grass, grass-addons,
grass-website, grass-promo repositories,

- participated of GRASS PSC and community events,

- have one or more merged pull requests in qgis/QGIS related to GRASS
integration,

- have one or more merged pull requests in rsbivand/rgrass, or

- are registered and have translated for GRASS GIS in Weblate

during the time span of the previous two PSC mandates, i.e., for 2024
elections, we are considering contributors since 2016.
