== Purpose ==
 
The Open Compute Foundation’s [[http://www.opencompute.org/about/organization-and-board/| Board of Directors]] charters the Open Compute Projects, appoints the initial Project Committee chairs (PCC)  (or project leads) as well as approves the specifications that are accepted into the Open Compute Project (OCP).
 
As our community has grown, it is now time to put into place a standard by which the project communities begin to govern themselves with oversight from the OCP Foundation’s Board and guidance from the its Community Manager.
 
As we prepare for 2014 and a more open and transparent relationship and since we have had our first appointed PCC or Project Lead announce his resignation now is a great time to begin our election process.
 
 
== Terms ==
 
 
PCC/Project Leads will be elected for a term of one (1) year which will begin on 15 January 2013 through 31 November 2014
 
== Who is eligible? ==
 
Anyone who is a member of the project can be nominated to be on the election ballet.
 
== How does nominations work? ==
 
Anyone on the project can nominate themselves or someone else on the project for inclusion on the ballot. Just email Amber Graner and let her know if you are nominating someone else or if you are self nominating.  If you are self-nominating please include a short biography about yourself so we can let members of the project know a little about who they are voting for.
 
== Who can vote? ==
 
Anyone who is a member of the project along with the OCP Board. 
 
To be considered a member of the project you must create a profile and sign the membership agreement. 
 
You can login using your Facebook account, your open ID, or by creating a new profile.  The email you use on your profile is the one your voting key will be sent to.  Please make sure to keep your profile email up to date.
 
If your organization is already an OCP member then please sign the membership agreement and build your profile using your organizational email address.
 
To create your profile  go to: http://www.opencompute.org//Security/login?BackURL=/account/
 
== Special Circumstances ==
 
In the event a PCC/Project Lead resigns from their position prior to the end of the term, that individual, if possible should give the Amber Graner the names of two people that would be interested in leading the project in the interim period. The project community will vote on the interim project lead.
