An election for FTSC standing members starts on Sunday 22th of October 2017 at 20:00 UTC.
As per FTA-1000.002 the number of FTSC members should be no less than 7 and no more than 30. Presently there are 12 FTSC members, 7 of them have their term expire this year. That leaves room for a maximum of 30-(12-7)=25 members to be (re)elected.
From FTA-1001.007
3.2 FTSC Standing Members -------------------------
FTSC members are appointed for a two year renewable term. [50 % of appointments on initial formation of the FTSC shall be for a 3 year renewable term, to ensure continuity of the Committee on expiry of the terms.]
To be selected as a FTSC member, an individual must be a Fidonet node, and should be actively involved in Fidonet. Examples include having put out a Fidonet-related product or having updated a product in the preceding two years, or having experience as a Coordinator, Echomail Coordinator or mail or file Hub.
Standing members may be nominated Fidonet-wide by all of the following methods:
1. Any RC. 2. A nominating committee established for the purpose by the FTSC. 3. A nominating committee established for the purpose by the ZCC.
A nominating committee may not consist of any current member or officer of the FTSC.
Standing members are appointed on the basis of a vote by all RCs who are nodelisted as holding those positions at the time the nominations are published. A successful candidate must receive approval by a majority of votes.
Publication of the nomination and the voting procedure, and posting of RC votes, shall take place openly in the FTSC_PUBLIC echo, and voting shall close three weeks after publication of the vote.
The status of RC's will be determined by nodelist.293 of this year by the list as issued by the ZC in the zone where they reside.
All RCs and members of a nominating committee are hereby invited to nominate members. Nominations must be posted in the FTSC_PUBLIC echo.
Nominations start at Sunday, 22 October 2017. 20:00 UTC and end at Sunday 5 November 2017, 20:00 UTC.
Nominators are advised to sound out prospective nominees before filing a nomination. There is little or no point in nominating someone that has not shown interest and expressed willingness to accept.
Note to candidates: The main task of the FTSC is to document current practise. Contrary to what the name suggests, the FTSC does not create standards out of the blue. Current Fidonet practise evolves and when it has stabilized, it may become a standard through FTSC documentation. Also, the FTSC is not an enforcement body. Those who wish to join the FTSC in order to "engineer Fidonet" may be in for a disappointment. Our main job is that of a clerk. We write the technical manual, we do not design the machine. To avoid disappointment, sysops interested in joining the FTSC are strongly advised to read the following documents:
