- Term: The TSC Chair position should (will?) be open for nominations once every calendar year (two weeks prior to the term anniversary?) or upon Chair resignation or replacement by the TSC.
- Qualifications: To demonstrate investment in, and deep knowledge of, the project, all nominated candidates for TSC Chair must be active project Committers (Maintainers).
- Qualifications: The only qualification for nominated candidates for TSC Chair is that they be interested in performing the duties to the best of their ability.
- Nominations: Candidates for the position may self-nominate. Nominations should include a short paragraph describing why they are seeking the position, a short paragraph giving their background, and a head shot to be used for promotional purposes.
- Process: An announcement should be posted to the (`open-horizon`) project mailing list at least two weeks before an intended vote. This will give any prospective candidates that long to submit their nominations through that mailing list. If there is only one qualified candidate, a vote will not be held and that candidate will be automatically elected.

Joe Pearson will post this information to the project wiki sandbox and keep it continually updated based on mailing list feedback.

> Regarding point 2 xor 3 from your email. I have a slight preference for option 2, that the TSC Chair is a committer. Honestly, I waffled back and forth on this in my mind. I landed on option 2 simply because OH is still maturing and needs a TSC Chair that has already demonstrated deep commitment to the project. Upon reaching a more fully mature phase of growth, I think it would be appropriate to lower the bar. The project isn't there yet.
