Members of the LF may contact Andrew Updegrove at the firm Gesmer Updegrove LLP, which provides legal counsel to the LF.

TSC elections

• @Casey Cain went through his proposal about the TSC elections.
  
  

  • Draft Proposal for TSC Election Process

  • Disscussion ensued about the appropriate number of seats the TSC should have in the next election

    • Options discussed were:

      • 5 Seats

      • 3 Seats

      • 3 Platform Project Seats, w/ 2 CaL seats reserved for election no later than Feb 2021

      • 5 Seats, TSC commits to assess community status and add X(2?) no later than Feb 2021

      • 5 Seats now, and the new TSC decides at a later date (no later than Feb 2021) how many additional seats/or full re-election

      • @Guillaume Lambert also suggested gauge the interest by asking for volunteers - maybe by opening up the self nominations.

    • No clear consensus met.  Discussion will continue on the mailing list.
