NOTICE: SPI Annual General Meeting: 20:00 UTC, Monday July 10th 2023

This is a notice of the upcoming election for the SPI Board of
Directors. The Directors are the lifeblood of the organization
and are responsible for the smooth running of the affairs and
business of SPI. This year there is one (1) vacant position, due
to the expiration of Joe Conway's appointment from 2020-2023.

Please contact secretary(at)spi-inc(dot)org if you would like to
nominate yourself for this important position.

The ideal candidate will have an existing involvement in the
Free and Open Source community, though this need not be with an
SPI-affiliated project.

Please direct any questions about SPI board membership to the
spi-general mailing list, or to #spi on irc.spi-inc.org (OFTC),
before the formal nomination period closes.

The formal nomination period will open on Saturday, July 1st and
run for 13 days. If required, an election will occur via secret
ballot of SPI contributing members. This schedule will be used:

* Saturday July 1st 2023 00:00 UTC - Nomination period opens
