Hi all, thanks for the call and I also want to encourage everyone to apply and join one of our institutional organs for the coming year. For myself, I am planning to reapply. However, with my application comes absence from end of November to beginning of January. Kind regards, Eddie On 13.09.24 18:58, Peter Saint-Andre <stpeter@stpeter.im> wrote:

Thanks, Alex!

As noted in the recent Board meeting, because of family obligations I will not be able to serve on the Board in the next term, although I will still be able to serve as Treasurer.

I hope other folks will step up! Serving on the Board or the Council is not a huge burden and personally I've always found it to be very rewarding.

Hello,

another year went by and we have to get prepared to elect the 2024-2025 XSF Board and Council soon. When you are interested in running for Board (business stuff) or Council (technical stuff) for the upcoming term, please create an appropriate Wiki page by November 3rd, 2024, 00:00 UTC and link it from here: https://wiki.xmpp.org/web/Board_and_Council_Elections_2024 <https:// wiki.xmpp.org/web/Board_and_Council_Elections_2024>

When you need to learn more about those roles, feel free to ask questions on the list, our XSF chatroom, or contact people directly which have been in those roles before.

Proxy voting is scheduled to start on November 4th, and we will hold our annual meeting to elect the next XSF Board and Council on November 21st.

The meeting particulars are: Date: 2024-11-21 Time: 19:00 UTC Location: xmpp:xsf@muc.xmpp.org <mailto:xsf@muc.xmpp.org>?join

Thanks, Alex

Dear Adrien, I think I can speak for everyone that an application for e.g. the XSF Board is a great step and we can just encourage you to do so if you feel motivated. So, please go ahead and setup your application wiki page. Feel free to get inspired by the previous applications. If you have more questions, you are more than welcome to ask here.

Hi,

Well, I might be interested to apply. I really want to invest a bit more time into the XSF so perhaps that could be a good way? ;)

Happy hacking!
