Community TOC Nominations 2025

[jolheiser]

It's time for the yearly election for community TOC members!
https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#technical-oversight-committee-toc

This issue is only for collecting nominations, the actual vote will be done with helios (or some other mechanism, suggestions welcome) as we did last year to ensure no one is pressured to vote a certain way.

Please put your name forward or nominate another (willing) maintainer, ideally along with a simple description of why said person would make a good candidate. We will send out a separate notification once we have the vote ready after collecting nominations.

If you are nominated by someone else, please accept/deny the nomination as well so we can constrain the ballot to people interested in running.

Anyone who hasn't confirmed their nomination by the end of November will not be placed on the ballot.

If you are not a Gitea maintainer, please refrain from commenting, we will be marking them as off-topic. Any conversation regarding this issue can happen on one of our other social platforms.

[delvh]

I mean… I accept the nomination.
However, I already know that I'll have equally little time in 2025 as currently in 2024.
If that's fine for everybody, then yes, I accept the nomination.

@go-gitea/maintainers we are about a week and a half away, so I'm going to ping one more time to collect nominations. There may be a few more pings/emails once voting begins, but otherwise I'll try not to spam everyone.
I'm hoping to get voting started ASAP in December! 😁

I will be stepping down for 2025, so I am politely declining my nomination for now.

@yp05327 and @silverwind if you could confirm (or deny) your nomination as well.

I'll try to keep current nomination status in the OP.

I'm not standing for TOC, but I'm happy to continue to contribute :)

[yp05327]

In my mind, TOC should have wide range knowledges, but I'm not sure I have enough knowledges. There are still too many things to learn. If it is not required/cared, I can accept it.
