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,

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.
