Elections just ended for the Gentoo council for the next
year. Turnout was 57% with 145 developers voting, which is
quite excellent. The council, created by GLEP
39 to replace Gentoo’s previous hierarchy, decides on
global issues and policies that affect multiple projects. To
select council members, Gentoo uses the Condorcet voting method,
which involves ranking them in order rather than just picking a
single candidate. Here are your new council members, listed
by ranking in the election results:
All of the previous council members who ran again were
re-elected, and the two new members are Mark Loeser
and Tobias Scherbaum. A full
list of ranked candidates is also available. The new
council members will get right to work—the new council’s
first meeting, scheduled for July 10, is approaching fast.
