Speaking of which, with the name 'OpenSER,' it's very easy for people to get the misconception that SER is a closed project and OpenSER is the open version of it. There ought to be some mention of 'open source' or at least the word 'open' somewhere on the SER project's main page (if there is, I didn't see it on cursory glance, so someone might need to re-evaluate the verbage). That might help alleviate some people's concerns about the overall nature of the SER project and how it's developed. With SER and OpenSER now becoming more and more divergent, and the project names themselves being incredibly misleading, a good, simple explanation of the nature of the SER project could go a long way.

As for balance between companies, I hope we can avoid having a majority from a single commercial entity, as this can reinforce the (false) impression that iptel.org is controlled by a commercial entity. That being said, people are nominated (and I'm pretty sure also receive votes) based on their personal track record and all the currently nominated people have IMHO clearly showed their dedication across employers. g-) Miklos Tirpak wrote:Hi *, I would like to nominate Raphael Coeffic from SEMS development, Andrei Pelinescu-Onciul and Jan Janak from SER development, Greger V. Teigre and Martin Hoffmann from the boarder community. Looking at the actual state of the election I am just afraid that the result will not be so balanced between the companies, hopefully it will not cause any problem. Anyway, we can add some more people to the board later if there is a need for it. Regards, Miklos On 05/24/2007 02:50 PM, Greger V.

Let me start: I would like to nominate Jan Janak and Andrei Pelinescu-Onciul for the two developer positions (both due to their central involvement across SER), N. (sip@arcdiv.com) as a user community representative (due to long-time and valuable serusers activity), and Martin Hoffmann as a user community representative (due to his strong SER credentials as book auther, long-term developer and operator of service provider installations). As Raphael has already accepted his nomination as a SEMS representative/developer, I only nominate four. g-) SIP wrote:You ought to stick up a page on the Iptel site somewhere to keep track of who's been nominated perhaps, so people could reference it when deciding their votes. Just an idea. I nominate Greger to keep track of all of this voting nominating stuff! Seconded? ;) N. Greger Viken Teigre wrote:Why should voting be secret? We strive openness and transparency in decision processes by making decisions through consensus on the mailing lists.
