We are seeking nominations for candidates for election to the X.Org Foundation Board \
of Directors. All X.Org Foundation members are eligible for election to the board.

Nominations for the 2019 election are now open and will remain open until 23:59 UTC \
on 14 February 2019.

The Board consists of directors elected from the membership. Each year, an election \
is held to bring the total number of directors to eight. The four members receiving \
the highest vote totals will serve as directors for two year terms.

The directors who received two year terms starting in 2018 were Keith Packard, Bryce \
Harrington, Eric Anholt, and Harry Wentland. They will continue to serve until their \
term ends in 2020. Current directors whose term expires in 2019 are Rob Clark, Martin \
Peres, Taylor Campbell and Daniel Vetter.

A director is expected to participate in the fortnightly IRC meeting to discuss \
current business and to attend the annual meeting of the X.Org Foundation, which will \
be held at a location determined in advance by the Board of Directors.

A member may nominate themselves or any other member they feel is qualified. \
Nominations should be sent to the Election Committee at elections at x.org.

Nominees shall be required to be current members of the X.Org Foundation, and submit \
a personal statement of up to 200 words that will be provided to prospective voters. \
The collected statements, along with the statement of contribution to the X.Org \
Foundation in the member's account page on http://members.x.org, will be made \
available to all voters to help them make their voting decisions.

Nominations, membership applications or renewals and completed personal statements \
must be received no later than 23:59 UTC on 14 February 2019.

The slate of candidates will be published 21 February 2019 and candidate Q&A will \
begin then. The deadline for Xorg membership applications and renewals is 21 February \
2019.

Cheers, Harry Wentland, on behalf of the X.Org BoD
