| |
Two years ago, Alan Cox suggested that the election for the members of the Linux Foundation Technical Advisory Board be held in the pub. In 2008, we achieved that with record numbers of both candidates and voters.
There were five two-year positions open in this election; the candidates who were elected to those positions (ordered by decreasing numbers of votes) are:
James Bottomley Kristen Carlson Accardi Chris Mason Dave Jones Chris Wright
There was one single-year position opened by the resignation of Olaf Kirch. The voting resulted in a sixth-place tie between Ted Ts'o and Christoph Hellwig; Christoph won the subsequent coin toss and was elected to that position.
Thanks to all of the other candidates who ran:
Kevin Dankwardt Randy Dunlap Matt Mackall Kyle McMartin Ted Ts'o Matthew Wilcox David Woodhouse
It was a noisy and good-spirited event; thanks to all who participated.
