It is important to reduce single points of failure in - these roles. Additionally, turnover in hats can provide fresh - insight and help avoid burnout.</p> - - <p>The current set of core-appointed hats is core secretary, - head release engineer, the security officer, and postmaster.</p> - - <p>The FreeBSD Core team has approved the following hats term - limits policy. This was first posted to the Developers mailing - list on June 22, 2012, and amended in June 2015.</p> - - <h2>Policy</h2> - - <p>An individual may serve as a core-appointed hat given that:</p> - - <ul> - <li>Core approves their appointment or re-appointment to the - role.</li> - <li>The individual is willing to continue.</li> - <li>The individual is still able to perform the role - effectively.</li> - </ul> - - <p>Hats are appointed at the pleasure of core. Appointments may - be rescinded by core at any time where this serves the needs of - the project.</p> - - <p>Each hat's term begins three months after the start of a core - team's two year term and ends three months after the end of the - core team's term. Hats are explicitly approved by the new core - team at the start of the hat's term.</p> - - <p>If a hat becomes vacant during a term, core shall appoint a - replacement for the remainder of the term.</p> - - <p>Core shall review all hats annually.</p> - - <p>In general it is expected that volunteers serving in hat - positions will be limited to serving for four consecutive years, - rounded up to the first natural review/appointment cycle.</p> - - <p>Non volunteers serving in hat positions are still expected to - participate in annual reviews and provide for continuity to - core's satisfaction.</p> - - <p>Each hat must appoint a deputy who can cover their role in - the case of absence or illness, and be trained and ready to take - over the role (subject to core approval) should the role holder - resign before the end of their term.</p> - - <p>If a core team is dissolved prematurely, then the next term - for each hat will begin three months after the new core team's - term begins.</p> - - <p>These limits apply to individual hats and not to teams. For - teams with a single lead role, the limits shall apply to the - lead role. An individual that is not eligible to serve as the - lead of a team may continue to serve as a member of the - team.</p> - - </body> -</html> |
