Vote!
If you are a member of standing in the OpenTelemetry community, we invite you to participate with your vote in this election to ensure that the community is well-represented in the Governance Committee. In this election four people must be elected, each with two-year terms.
If you have made contributions to our ecosystem not measured by the automatic process, you can request an exception to participate in the election before 23:59 UTC on 18 October 2024. The voter roll with all members of standing and approved exceptions will be published by 4 October 2024 and continuously updated until the exception deadline.
Voting will be open between 21 October 2024 00:00 UTC and 23 October 2024 23:59 UTC on Helios Voting; voters will need to sign in with their GitHub account.
