<h2>Rationale</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>The FreeBSD Core team appoints several individuals
|
|
("hats") that perform critical roles within the
|
|
project. 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>It is suggested that shortened terms longer than half of a core
|
|
term be considered a full term for purposes of eligibility.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>This policy will begin with the start of the next core term, and
|
|
all hats will start off with zero terms at that time.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The FreeBSD Core team approved the following hats term limits
|
|
policy which was posted to the Developers mailing list on June 22,
|
|
2012.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Policy</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>An individual may serve as a core-appointed hat for at most two
|
|
consecutive terms. Each hat's term begins three months after the
|
|
start of a core team's term and ends three months after the end of
|
|
a core team's term. Hats are explicitly approved by the new core
|
|
team at the start of a hat's term. An individual who serves as a
|
|
hat for two consecutive terms may serve again after a break of at
|
|
least one full term.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Core shall review all hats annually.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>If a hat becomes vacant during a term, core shall appoint a
|
|
replacement for the remainder of the term. It is at core's
|
|
discretion whether the shortened term will count for purposes of
|
|
limiting the terms of the replacement.</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. It is at the new core's discretion whether the shortened
|
|
term will count for purposes of limiting the terms of current
|
|
hats.</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>
