Squeak Oversight Board 2015 Elections
 
|
Hi All,
It's that time again. Time to raise your voices and elect your leaders! It's a time for you to stand up, help your community and volunteer to serve! Squeak wants you! Every year we elect the SOB (Squeak Oversight Board) consisting of seven members from our community. The current board members are: 1. Bert Freudenberg 2. Eliot Miranda 3. Tim Rowledge 4. Frank Shearar 5. Craig Latta 6. Chris Muller 7. David T. Lewis For more info on the board please see: https://squeakboard.wordpress.com/our-mission/ Everything about the election, including schedule and more, can be tracked here: http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/6200 Now until Monday 16th of February 3PM (20.00 UTC): Nominations of SOB members and campaigning! Candidates should nominate themselves and start their campaign on the squeak-dev mailing list. Or if you nominate someone else, make sure that person really wants to run. :) I will not put anyone on the candidate list until that person makes it known on squeak-dev that he/she intends to run. During this period, the candidates should ideally present themselves on squeak-dev, unless they have already done so, and the community can ask questions. I encourage you to reach out to potential candidates, people that are active in the community and represent your views, and ask them to run. Some people will not run without encouragement. Also I know that some people wait to the last minute to run for the board to see if others will run but please consider getting this year off to a faster start and just jump right in! *** Now until Monday 16th of February 3PM (20.00 UTC): Nominations of SOB members and campaigning! *** Monday 16th of February 2015 3PM (20.00 UTC): Candidate list is finalized. *** Monday 16th of February 2015 4PM (21.00 UTC): Online election starts. *** Tuesday 24th of February 2015 6PM (23.00 UTC): Online election ends. *** Results will be announced immediately when the election ends. The voting period is one week long and ballots are sent out via email. And how do you end up on the voter list? See below. :) IMPORTANT: New voters will NOT be added once the election is started. You MUST try to get on the voter list before the 16th of February 2014 or you will NOT be able to vote. If your Email has changed please make sure it is changed on the list of voters before the election starts. -------------------------- If you were invited to vote last year you are already on the voter list, no worries! If you are a new Squeaker and wish to vote do ONE of the following: * Get a "known" Squeaker to vouch for you. If a known Squeaker sends an email to voters (at) squeak.org giving me name and email for you, then I will add you. * Send an email to voters at squeak.org yourself (and CC to squeak-dev if you like) with information/arguments showing me that you are indeed serious about voting and that you are indeed a Squeaker. When the voting period starts all voters will receive an email with instructions and a link to the voting website. If there are any further questions, just reply *in this thread* and I will closely track it - or send email to voters (at) squeak.org which points to me. ...so let's get on with it! All the best, Ron Teitelbaum |

I'll run. I'm running on the not-a-cabbage ticket.
In recent times I had a financial crisis, but it's really looking like I'm out of the woods now. I'd be glad to volunteer if the people of Squeak would have me, and I do believe that right now I'm in a position to focus a good deal of time on the Squeak community. Last time, I probably would have been swept up in day to day survival stuff, but that's not the situation now. My interests currently include leveraging improvements made to Morphic in Cuis, and figuring how we're going to use Spoon to explore and extract them. I'd also like to do what I can to support and/or continue the work Frank Shearar has done with both disentangling dependencies and maintaining a continuous integration infrastructure. You should really consider the other contenders, though, because I'm quite sure that all of them will be great candidates.

I'd love it if Craig ran again as well. And basically everyone who's served in the five-odd years (has it been longer?) I've been around, all have been great.
Run, people. Please. Not for me, but for everyone else. You're wanted, and you're needed. Besides, if you don't, you'll be stuck with me.

Hi everyone-- I'd like to serve on the Squeak board again. In the current term, I've made progress on Context initiative[1] for bringing distributed modularity to Squeak and the other Smalltalks. I've worked with some brave testers, including Lawson English and Philippe Back. I contributed to our outreach effort by attending and speaking about Squeak again at FOSDEM 2015 [2] (video coming), attending Pharo Days[3], and mentioning Squeak on social media[4], my blog[5], and the weekly Smalltalk Reflections podcast[6] with my co-host David Buck. I'm collaborating with Bert and others on SqueakJS[7]. I'm writing WebSocket support so that SqueakJS systems can form peer-to-peer remote messaging meshes, like any normal Smalltalk (and for use with distributed modules). I started a Squeak presence at Slack[8], which is off to a good start for improving collaboration communication. My main priority for the next term is to put Naiad (the module system) into wider use. This will draw upon the other elements of Context (Spoon, the minimal object memory kernel, and Lightning, the remote messaging protocol). I would like to increase Squeak's presence at ESUG 2015 and other conferences, and in the Raspberry Pi community. I'd like to reduce the Squeak community's gender imbalance. Through outreach we can improve the situation, along with merely becoming more popular. Like the community itself, I think the board is very strong. I enjoy working with its members very much.

I see 2015 as a very important year for Squeak. We are moving to an advanced 64-bit image and VM, and at the same time we are seeing the amazing run-anywhere portability of the SqueakJS VM that can host all the images of the last 15 years on any computer with a modern web browser. This range of capability, performance, and portability is unmatched by anything else I know of in the world of computing. Our challenge as a community is to keep all of these things working and easily accessible to people all around the world, running all sorts of computers, everyone from young kids in schools to people pursuing advanced computer science research. I participate in Squeak as a hobby programmer, and I value things like FunSqueak, Scratch, and Etoys that make computing fun and accessible to all. I see Squeak as much more than technology, it is a human-focused system that needs insight and vision in order to thrive and grow. We really need to bring women into the community. And we need to do a better job of connecting with Squeak users and contributors around the world, especially in places where English language is not a first language. Dave |

I'm pretty good when it comes to taking up space, so let me announce my candidacy for one of those two remaining slots. :) 2015 is going to be a huge year for me; besides the doors that have already been opened by a stable Spur VM, I can already see that the new 64-bit images will require a file-format change for Magma. On top of that, I also want to reinvent Maui inside the browser, backed by Squeak and Seaside. The goal of these frameworks is to provide the shallowest possible entrance-ramp for Squeak, so that users can write usable applications even by focusing almost solely on domain code, instead of on "developer issues" like persistence and UI code. Squeak and you people in its community are important to me, I truly like everyone here as fellow humans, maybe to the point that it has made me too comfortable around you at times that I would continue to pester you with my arguments. I think the mention of attracting women in the community invites a whole new and better dimension of communication-style in this community which I wholeheartedly support. In fact I would like to embrace it now, whether we have women in the community yet or not. I'm committing myself to /ensuring/ I only engage in positive and productive discussion. This reflects my same passion I've always had to fulfill our dreams and goals for Squeak. I want it to be great (as we all do), and I want it to remain accessible, even to a non-developer audience. |

I will support any effort in that direction. That also means to me that Squeak should work well across all platforms, providing a truly universal personal computing environment. This is what sets Squeak apart from pretty much all other development systems. Computing for anyone, anywhere. Sounds almost like a campaign slogan ;^) - Bert - |
