Hello LFN Community,

We are excited to share with you that the LFN Mentorship Program is still accepting applications for 5 mentorships. Applications are open now through Friday, April 28th, 2023 at 11:59 PM Pacific Time.

Selected mentees will have the opportunity to work with a mentor starting on June 1st, 2022, for a duration of 3-6 months, depending on the allocated hours. Typically, the mentorship requires a commitment of 20-40 hours per week. You can find more information on the LFN Mentorship page

We also invite you to watch the Mentor Showcase on YouTube to learn more about the experiences of previous mentees.

As a valued member of the LFN community, we kindly ask for your help in spreading the word about these paid mentorships.

If you have any questions or would like more information, please don't hesitate to reach out to me directly.

Thank you for your support and continued engagement in the LFN community.

Reminder to all Committers - Representative Election

Casey Cain
 

Hello everyone,

This is a reminder that the LFN Committer Representative to the Governing Board Election is still open for Nominees until 25 August 2022. 

Note from the current Committer Representative - Amy Zwarico
I’ve served as the LFNGB Committer for the past year which gave me the opportunity to understand more about LF Networking as a whole. The Committer Representative is meant to advocated for the developers and committers in the LFN projects – bringing their concerns to the governing board and ensuring that the developers remain at the center of the LFN. The job is not time consuming: 6 meetings per year plus time to meet offline with project teams to understand their concerns and needs. It is a worthwhile one year commitment for anyone involved in LFN projects.

If you are interested in becoming the technical representative to the Governing Body and you meet the eligibility requirements, please self-nominate at the link below by August 25th, 2022.

If you would like more information on the LGBMCR, please see https://wiki.lfnetworking.org/x/AgIiAQ or reach out to your community Technical Program Manager / Community Architect.

Eligible candidates:
  • Candidates must be active committers to at least one LFN project.
  • Candidates can self-nominate, or be nominated by other community members. In the latter case, candidates must accept the nomination before the election is conducted.
  • Candidates must be an active committer to a LFN project which differs from the LFN project that the currently servicing LGBMCR is an active committer of.
    • The 2021 LGBMCR was from the ONAP Community
