Overview

The TSC meets for only 1 hour per week so to keep the meeting focussed, some items for vote can be taken offline.  If discussion is needed, it can be placed on the agenda, otherwise the vote can take place here.

Process

Votes are organized under pages by year.  For example there is a page for 2020 where votes are recorded and new votes can be proposed.


Instructions

Sample Image

A new vote can be created using the Create New Vote button.

Ensure the list of Confluence user IDs is correct for the current set of TSC members (or their respective proxies).

Copy the text of the vote into the Page Properties table.  This table is used to generate the summary list of votes on the vote pages by year.

Ensure the Status is set to 

Status
colourYellow
titleOPEN FOR COMMENT
to ensure a reasonable period for discussion.  Offline votes should never be taken without room for feedback.

Set the vote close date to at least 2 weeks out:

  • 1 week minimum for comment
  • 1 week for votes to be entered

Email the TSC (opnfv-tsc@lists.opnfv.org) with a link to the page requesting comments.


Opening the Vote

Once the comment period has ended, all comments have been resolved, and the TSC has agreed to start the vote, the vote macro must be edited to:

  1. Reflect any changes in the vote text.
  2. Unlock the vote macro so voting can occur.

Edit the macro and clear the Locked status at the bottom of the vote properties pane.

Update the Page Properties table to indicate

Email the TSC (opnfv-tsc@lists.opnfv.org) with a link to the page requesting members vote.


Closing the Vote

Once the voting period has ended, lock the vote macro so no more votes can take place.


Take note of final tally.

Update the Vote Tally using the following format: X / Y / Z, where X is the total of -1s, Y is the total of 0s, and Z is the total of +1s.

The tally for the image shown on the right would read: 1 / 0 / 1.
