Voting Policy Details

The voting policy is defined in the RISC-V Policies Procedures document.

Role key

  • Participant: The member is a voting member. Their voting status is reflected in the Voting Status column. The criteria for maintaining this status is defined below.

  • Observer: The member is a non-voting participant in the work group.

Voting Status key

  • Voting: The member is a voting member and is in good standing

  • Probation: The member is a voting member but has not met the voting criteria and may not vote

Voting Criteria

Per the section 2B “Voting Members and Voting Rights of Technical Committees”, item #4 of the policy (above), voting may be removed for two reasons:

  1. Functionally inactive criteria
    A Participating Member is considered functionally inactive by missing two (2) of three (3) successive Technical Committee meetings (in-person, virtually or by correspondence). For the purposes of this criteria, attending any in-person or virtual meetings of a group over a week, constitutes attending all meetings of the group for the week.

  2. Failing to vote criteria
    Has failed to vote on any of Proposal, Stable, or Freeze Milestone ballots.

Note: the voting criteria are not applied to the TSC organization.
