The OpenAFS Council of Elders announces the following changes to its Gatekeeper and Council of Elders organizations: Council of Elders: Harald Barth [*], Derrick Brashear, Todd DeSantis, Alistair Ferguson, Roman Mitz, Laura Stentz. The OpenAFS Council of Elders advocates the usage and development of OpenAFS, sets the future direction for development, and provides guidance for major OpenAFS architectural decisions. Incoming New Members - Roman Mitz has been elected to the OpenAFS Council of Elders and is replacing Tom Dopirak as Treasurer. Roman has a long history at Carnegie Mellon University with varying responsibility for AFS in many different roles. Elders Emeritae - The following members will no longer be active voting members of the Council of Elders. They will be designated as Elders Emeritae: Russ Allbery (Stanford), Jeffrey Altman (Your File System), and Tom Dopirak (CMU). We appreciate the contributions of these outgoing members, and we are grateful for their service. The Gatekeepers are responsible for implementing product upgrades, incorporating bug fixes, making sure the code continues to work after changes are incorporated, and interfacing between the Development Community and the Council of Elders. Gatekeepers: The following are current OpenAFS gatekeepers: Jeffrey Altman (Your File System), Derrick Brashear (Your File System). These gatekeepers have played a critical role in advancing and maintaining OpenAFS over the past five years. [*] On a temporary leave of absence. -- Derrick
