The elections committee determines the eligibility of voters.

I doubt they intended to make that criterion inconsistent with all the others by not including a time limit, so I would recommend that people who are interested in voting ensure they meet one of the other criteria to be safe.

Hi all,

Just a small reminder for any developers that they only have 4 more
days to become eligible to vote in the 2022 WMF Board of Trustees
election.

Developers can confirm their eligibility by reviewing the below list:

* are Wikimedia server administrators with shell access
* or have made at least one merged commit to any Wikimedia repos on
Gerrit, between 5 January 2022 and 5 July 2022.
* or have made at least one merged commit to any repo in
nonwmf-extensions or nonwmf-skins, between 5 January 2022 and 5 July
2022.
* or have made at least one merged commit to any Wikimedia tool repo
(for example magnustools) between 5 January 2022 and 5 July 2022.
* or have made at least 300 edits before 5 July 2022, and 20 edits
between 5 January 2022 and 5 July 2022, on Translatewiki.
* or maintainers/contributors of any tools, bots, user scripts,
gadgets, and Lua modules on Wikimedia wikis.
* or have substantially engaged in the design and/or review processes
of technical development related to Wikimedia.

If you need help getting a patch(/s) merged in the next few days,
don't hesitate to reach out to the community in the next few days on
the mailing lists, other locations such as the various IRC channels or
phabricator.
