It has been a full year since the creation of the LDraw.org Standards Committee
(LSC). Nominations are now open, elections will be held July 15.
The LDraw.org Standards Committee (LSC) is responsible for maintaining
semi-regular internal discussions on pending file format issues, the overall
progress of the LDraw file format and new or proposed developments made by
different LDraw-based software authors. They adopt new official standards by
voting on them, and publish documentation on LDraw.org following such a
decision. The LSC has documented and will document past, current and future
LDraw File Formats.
To be eligible for LSC membership, per the proposal [1], you must fulfill at
least one of the following:
- Authored at least two LDraw parts subsequently released in an Official LDraw.org Parts Update
- Served as a reviewer on the Parts Tracker through at least 2 official parts updates, and posted at least 5 reviews in at least two updates since their initial participation
- Authored a software program that is compliant with either the LDraw 0.2.7 spec or another spec published by the LSC
- Petition for nomination as an LSC candidate approved by 2 current LSC members
- Petition for nomination as an LSC candidate made to the LSC by at least 5 others eligible to be LSC candidates
Following last year’s [2] precedent, people can either self-nominate or
nominate someone else. When nominating, please reference the person’s
eligibility from the list above.
Nominations MUST be posted in direct reply to this post to be counted, and must
be online by 12:00am July 14.
The dates this year are slightly different than set forth in the proposal, but
follow the same general pattern. Voting for the elections will begin July 15,
and end July 22. Per the proposal, the LSC will officially change over on August
15th, giving time to transition newly elected members into the committee.
The poll will be conducted via the LDraw.org web site. Organization Members are
eligible to vote in this poll. If you are not registered as a member of the
organization and would like to join, follow the instructions at the bottom of
this page: Joining the Organization.
