TSC seat abandonment
Discussed on
Ahmed El Sawaf (STC) has only attended 2 TSC meetings since his election (on Feb 23 and April 20, 2021), and has not participated in any off-line vote. Attempts to contact him have failed.
"If a TSC member is no longer able to perform the TSC duties, the TSC member may inform the TSC via an email to the TSC email list."
Subsequent items in quotes are from the charter.
What we have here is more a case of abandonment than resignation. The charter does not cover this case exactly.
Do one or more TSC members believe that this is a Major TSC Issue?
"Major TSC issues may only be resolved at a TSC meeting except that the voting shall be electronically." No on
Decision: Will allow additional time to try to reachAhmed El Sawaf
Does the TSC agree that the criteria for "Replacement of a TSC member" has been satisfied, and "an election for the position is held within 30 days of notification to resign. The conditions of the election are the same as for any TSC election." ? Have a work around.
Al was in touch with Ahmed just recently. Ahmed is well. He proposes to get to his colleagues to suggest a new TSC member from STC. Official approach would be: Ahmed resigns and the seat would be up for election. Simple short term solution which would also follow the existing rules: Ahmed could assign a proxy (a proxy could serve for 6 consecutive meetings). Alternatively, Ahmed could resign and a new election to fill the open seat would be held. Al will follow up with Ahmed.

Gitlab changed procedures slightly: Contributors need a credit card on file to run the CI; open source is an exception to that. Trevor updated the setup to comply to the new change, so that open source contributors (us ) don't need a credit card on file.
Lack of support for Easy-CLA is currently blocking moving projects to gitlab. Expectation is that by end of September gitlab will support Easy-CLA.
Trevor will come back with info when LF-Insights will support gitlab.
Trevor will follow up with a list of active projects and a list of inactive projects which have not be archived yet.
