Executive Council 2025 Election

[Zsailer]

In this issue we'll track progress and questions regarding the 2025 election of the Jupyter Executive Council (EC).

A few reminders:

• Any member of a Standing Committee, Working Group, or Subproject Council (the "Union of Councils" or "UoC") is eligible to serve in the Jupyter Executive Council (a call for nominations will come shortly).
• Per our governance model, we will have 3 open seats this election cycle. Two will be chosen by the community and one will be chosen by the Executive Council.

Please feel free to ask any questions below.

What's the timeline for the 2025 Election?

I've added this information to the top level comment.

I think it'd be useful to mention on the voting form the candidates are listed in a different order (is it random?) from that in the guide.

@manics, are you sure you're seeing a different order? They are in the same order in both places for me: 1. Damian, 2. Darian, 3. Chris, 4. Rick.

Are you seeing a different order?

[Zsailer]

@manics nevermind! I just refreshed the form and they appear in a different order. It looks like I needed to adjust the settings to avoid shuffling the rows. It should be fixed now. Thank you for pointing this out!

@Zsailer - doing some cleanup and realized this issue is actually duplicate of one we already had in the governance repo: #244 - is there a way to merge them?
