After successfully using CIVS to tally the 450 ballots cast (56% turnout) on OpaVote, We are hereby concluding this election! We congratulate the first members of the Nix Steering Committee (SC) (ordered alphabetically):

• @Ericson2314 (2 year term)
• @fpletz (1 year term)
• @Gabriella439 (2 year term)
• @jtojnar (2 year term)
• @roberth (2 year term)
• @tomberek (1 year term)
• @winterqt (1 year term)

This result is certified by all Election Committee members.

For verification purposes, all OpaVote ballots will soon be available here (the result there should be ignored; voters will also get an email), while the CIVS tally to determine the result using the same ballots is already available here. See the new docs for more info on result verification.

We are now establishing communications with the first SC members and will soon make a final handover announcement on behalf of the EC / NCA.

We, the members of the EC / NCA, and Ron from the NixOS Foundation board, are thankful for everybody’s participation in this first election, and are looking forward to see the first SC getting started.

Note that you can also read and publicly discuss this announcement on Discourse.
