OpenSolaris Community: Community Advisory Board (CAB)

Leadership of the OpenSolaris community is now conducted by the OpenSolaris Governing Board.

Welcome to the OpenSolaris Community Advisory Board

The OpenSolaris Community Advisory Board (CAB) is composed of 5 members

• - 2 from Sun, 2 from the OpenSolaris pilot community, and 1 from the open source community. The CAB was created to develop an OpenSolaris Charter and Governance and to drive consensus within the community.

The OpenSolaris Charter has been approved and the OpenSolaris Constitution is currently under development.

With the approval of the OpenSolaris Charter, the current CAB actually becomes the first OpenSolaris Governing Board (OGB) until new elections can be held.

All governance proposals will be debated, iterated, and ratified in public, and community members can participate in those conversations by subscribing to the governance discussion list.

In the photo above from left to right: Rich Teer, Jonathan Schwartz, Simon Phipps, Roy Fielding, Al Hopper, Casper Dik. The image was taken during the CAB's first meeting in San Francisco on April 4, 2005 when the members met with Jonathan Schwartz, Sun's then president and COO (Schwartz is now CEO). CAB bios can be found here.

From the Pilot Community:

• Al Hopper
• Rich Teer

From Sun:

• Simon Phipps
• Casper Dik

From the Open Source Community:

• Roy Fielding
