Hello Fedora Friends,
I believe it's time for me to move on from my current role as the
Council Engineering representative. When I resigned from FESCo a bit
ago, I thought I could still fulfill this role. Unfortunately, that
turns out to not be the case. I cannot in good conscience hold a
seat
on the Council and be an absentee member.
As we look to the future for Fedora, we need someone with more active
participation to be present. Fortunately, we have a large set of
very
competent people that I believe can step into this role without
issue.
While it is only a suggestion, I would like to nominate Petr Šabata
as
the new Council Engineering rep. He is more than capable of
discussing the technical implications of Modularity and the newly
proposed Objective from Paul. The decision will ultimately be up to
FESCo and the Council of course.
These are important times for Fedora and I'm excited for the future!
I will continue to participate as I can and I'm looking forward to
seeing the directions we take as a project and as a distribution. It
has been an honor to be part of the Fedora Council for the past few
years. Thank you to the community for trusting me with that role for
so long.
Thank you Josh for all your work over the years, and for the self
awareness that you are not doing the job you want to be doing. I think
that Petr would be able to the job technically very well, however I
object to your reasoning for nominating him. It seems to me that the
nominations is done with a strong bias to a small subset of the
technical directions we are going in. As the Engineering representive I
think there needs to also be a strong focus on the other things like
Fedora CoreOS, emerging technologies (some are coverd with objectives
like IoT), as well as the other technical challenges fedora is facing.
I also know Petr has a lot on his plate already. Are we perhaps asking
too much of him?
