2026/2027 LDraw.org Steering Committee: Call for Nominations - Willy Tschager - 2026-01-19
Per the LDraw.org Bylaws at http://www.ldraw.org/article/268.html, Subsection
6.03(a), the 2025/2026 Steering Committee hereby calls for the community to nominate individuals as candidates for the 2026/2027 Steering Committee[1].
Please post nominations in response to this message. Nominations will only be recognized if they are in response to this message.
Per ss.6.03(a), you must specify the name of the person you are nominating, along with your name. Another member of the community must second the nominationin a reply, and the nominee must publicly accept the nomination in the same channel (direct reply to the nomination or second) in order to be valid. If the nominee does not accept, it will be assumed that he or she has declined, and they will not be placed on the ballot.
Nominations will close at 11:59 PM GMT on 28 February 2026. This means that to be listed on the ballot, a candidate must have been nominated, seconded and must have formally stated acceptance by that time.
The Steering Committee will give sufficient notice of the election and election procedures per ss.6.03(b).
NOTE: subsection 6.03(b) states that elections should take place before March 1. We interpret this to mean that we will commence the election on March 1, but
since it is electronic, it will run for 2 weeks, just as last time. The exact time and date of start and end will be announced sometime very close to (but after) 0000 GMT March 1.
Again, thanks to all of you for your commitment to the goals of the organization, and in working with us this year. Please, stay involved with LDraw.org and keep it moving forward!
Willy Tschager
On behalf of the LDraw.org Steering Committee

Thank you so much for the nomination. Could you tell me how much discussion takes place in the Steering Committee and how many decisions are made in a year? As you know, I don't speak English and I don't want that to cause any problems.
Kind regards,
Lisa

It's fair to say that not more than two to three topics a year are discussed and decided on. It's really just setting the broad guidelines where we - as a community - should go.

Hello guys,
thank you very much, and I am honored that you have placed your trust in me once again.
However, I believe that there are other members who are better suited for this position, and I therefore decline.
