Simon Phipps is Deputy Chairperson; his role is recorded as `board_director` (deputy board seat) since "Deputy Chairperson" is a board-deputy designation rather than a foundation officer post. The statutes note the Board may appoint officers for daily business, but no separate officer roster is published on this page. + +Paid vs volunteer: board directors are elected community members and not treated as paid_staff. Sophie Gautier's bio notes she is "contracted as foundation coordinator", and Mike Saunders works in TDF marketing, but the board page does not present a staff/employment roster, so no `paid_staff` class is assigned here; the separate /team/ page would be the source for TDF staff. + +Bios: published verbatim for all seven (captured, lightly trimmed of formatting only). Contact: none per person. Term dates: not stated as explicit terms; join years appear only in narrative prose (e.g. Mike Saunders "as a Deputy in 2024", Osvaldo Gervasi prior term 2016-2020) and per the crawl rules are NOT recorded as `term_start`/`term_end`. Prior boards (2012-2024) are linked for the leadership-history dataset. diff --git a/_leadership/dotnetfoundation.md b/_leadership/dotnetfoundation.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..98bf385 --- /dev/null +++ b/_leadership/dotnetfoundation.md @@ -0,0 +1,136 @@ +--- +identifier: dotnetfoundation +commonName: .NET Foundation +asOf: 2026-07-25 +sources: +- url: https://dotnetfoundation.org/about/board-of-directors + type: org_live + retrieved: 2026-07-25 +people: +- name: Mitchel Sellers + personId: null + roles: + - role: President + roleClass: officer + - role: Board Director + roleClass: board_director + contact: https://twitter.com/mitchelsellers + bio: null + termStart: 2026 + termEnd: 2029 + sourceUrl: https://dotnetfoundation.org/about/board-of-directors + derived: org_live + confidence: 1.0 +- name: Jonathan "J."

The Eclipse Foundation is a Belgian international non-profit association (AISBL). + +Board of Directors: 21 directors, each with a verbatim published bio. The directors page does not label a Board Chair, so all are recorded as `board_director` with no officer role. Most directors are named alongside a member-company affiliation (e.g. Robert Bosch GmbH, Google LLC, Red Hat, IBM, Microsoft, Oracle, SAP, Fujitsu, Huawei); the affiliation is retained inline within the bio since the schema has no employer field. No term dates or per-person contact are published, so those are null. + +Executive leadership (paid staff): the staff page lists an "Eclipse Foundation Leadership" group of 8: Executive Director (Mike Milinkovich), VP Community Operations / Secretary (Gaël Blondelle), VP Program Management (Dennis Leung), Chief Marketing Officer (Thabang Mashologu), VP Legal & Public Affairs (Catharina Maracke), VP Finance and Operations (Jenn Martel), Chief Membership Officer (Michael Plagge), and Treasurer (Paul White). The page states these are people "working full-time", so `paid_staff` is stated, not inferred (confidence 1.0). Two carry corporate-officer titles: Blondelle as Secretary and White as Treasurer, recorded as `officer`. + +Paid-vs-volunteer: unlike volunteer-run foundations, the Eclipse Foundation is professionally staffed. The staff page publishes a full roster of approximately 87 additional operational employees (software developers, release engineers, marketing, events, IT, research project managers, security engineers, etc.) at https://www.eclipse.org/org/foundation/staff/. These rank-and-file staff are deliberately excluded from this leadership record to keep it governance-focused; they can be captured as a separate staff dataset if wanted. The count and URL are recorded here so the exclusion is traceable. + +Contact: the foundation states its email convention is `firstname.lastname@eclipse-foundation.org`, but does not publish per-person addresses on these pages. Individual `contact` fields are left null rather than constructing addresses from the pattern (no fabrication). + +Ed Merks appears on both the directors page (Board Director) and the staff page (Release Engineer for Eclipse SimRel); he is recorded once as a board director with a note. + +Term history: not published on these pages. The foundation runs annual board-of-directors elections (https://www.eclipse.org/org/elections/), which would be the source for a future leadership-history dataset. diff --git a/_leadership/eff.md b/_leadership/eff.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..d5a5a26 --- /dev/null +++ b/_leadership/eff.md @@ -0,0 +1,563 @@ +--- +identifier: eff +commonName: Electronic Frontier Foundation +asOf: 2026-07-25 +sources: +- url: https://www.eff.org/about/board + type: org_live + retrieved: 2026-07-25 +- url: https://www.eff.org/about/staff + type: org_live + retrieved: 2026-07-25 +people: +- name: Gigi Sohn + personId: null + roles: + -

He is therefore recorded with three roles: President (`officer`), Executive Director (acting) (`paid_staff`), and Board Director (`board_director`).

Haskell.org, Inc. is a New York not-for-profit (501(c)(3), DOS ID 4825953, incorporated 28 September 2015) that oversees the haskell.org website and community services (Hackage, GHC release infrastructure, the Haskell Wiki, mailing lists, Discourse, Hoogle). + +Governing body: the Committee consists of 7 members serving staggered 3-year terms, with 2–3 members stepping down each year at the end of October. Members are recorded as `board_director` (they are the directors of the corporation). Officers among them: Chair = Rebecca Skinner; Vice Chair and Vice Treasurer = Tom Ellis. The remaining five hold committee seats without an officer title. + +Term dates: each member's `term_end` year is stated verbatim (2026, 2027, or 2028) and captured. `term_start` is not stated per person, so it is left null rather than inferred from the 3-year term length (per no-inference rule). + +Related entity: the page states the directors of Haskell.org, Inc. are also directors of Haskell Foundation, Inc. (haskell.foundation), a separate organization. This record covers only the Haskell.org committee as listed on the haskell.org site. + +Paid vs volunteer: not stated explicitly. The committee is a community governance body of volunteers (members are "expected to serve" and are selected for "enthusiasm towards improving the Haskell community"); no compensation is mentioned and no paid staff is listed. Their governance role is captured as `board_director` regardless of pay; the unpaid nature is a reasonable judgement but not a verbatim statement, so no separate volunteer role is asserted. + +Contact: the org publishes a single Committee email (committee@haskell.org), not per-person addresses, so individual `contact` fields are null.

They are employed by their member companies, not paid by the Linux Foundation, so role_class is board_director (not paid_staff). Each director's employer / board-seat sponsor is recorded in the "Board member employers / seat sponsors" section below, not as a per-person field (the schema person shape has no employer field). Seat tiers stated verbatim on the page are preserved in the role field (Gold Director, Silver Director, At-Large Director). Officer roles held concurrently are recorded as separate officer roles: Nithya Ruff is Board Chair; Frank Fanzilli is Treasurer. + +Leadership team: recorded as paid_staff at confidence 0.95. Their titles (CEO/Executive Director, CFO, CRO, CTO, SVP, VP, GM) are stated verbatim and denote Linux Foundation employment, but the page does not print the words "employee", so the paid classification is a near-certain inference rather than a verbatim statement, hence 0.95 rather than 1.0. One exception: Andy Updegrove ("Legal Counsel") is a partner and founder of the external law firm Gesmer Updegrove LLP, so he is outside/contracted counsel rather than an LF employee; recorded paid_staff at confidence 0.7 with that reasoning. + +## Board member employers / seat sponsors (context, from page subtitle + verbatim bio) +Member-company seats: Tim Bird (Sony), Kimberly Craven (Red Hat), Melissa E.

Its governance has three distinct bodies, captured here from two live pages: + +1. Guardians — the legal directors of the Foundation (its board of directors). Four current: Jon Crowcroft, Matthew Hodgson, Amandine Le Pape, Ross Schulman. Recorded as `board_director`, confidence 1.0 (the page states Guardians "are the legal directors of the non-profit Foundation"). The Governing Board page shows the Foundation is allocated 3 Guardian seats on the Governing Board, one currently vacant. + +2. Foundation staff — the day-to-day team. The Managing Director role is currently vacant, with Amandine Le Pape covering as Acting Managing Director. Named staff: Jim Mackenzie (VP Trust and Safety), Thibault Martin (Director of Program Development), Travis Ralston (Director of Standards Development), Denise Almeida (Data Protection Officer). Recorded as `paid_staff` at confidence 0.9: the Foundation states these are "staffers... responsible for the day-to-day operations" who "are working under contract", but most are Element employees contracted to and funded by the Foundation rather than direct employees (the MD contracts directly with the Foundation). The contract/employment nuance is why confidence is 0.9 rather than 1.0. Amandine's Acting MD role is recorded as `paid_staff` at 0.9 for the same reason. + +3. Governing Board — an advisory board of elected constituency representatives that guides the Guardians, staff, and Spec Core Team (Terms of Reference v1.3, April 2025). Members are recorded as `volunteer` (elected community/funder representatives, not paid by the Foundation) at confidence 0.9 where the page does not explicitly label them volunteers; the base membership role is inferred non-paid. Named committee/board chair positions ARE explicitly stated and are recorded as `officer` at confidence 1.0. Vacant seats (multiple Platinum, one Gold, one Associate, one Guardian, Community Committee Vice Chair) are omitted as they name no person. + +People holding multiple roles are merged into a single record with multiple `roles` entries (e.g. Amandine Le Pape = Guardian + Acting MD + Finance & Fundraising Vice Chair; Matthew Hodgson = Guardian + Governing Board seat + Spec Core Team Lead; Nicolas Werner = Ecosystem rep + Community Committee Chair + T&S Committee Vice Chair). + +Exclusions: the Spec Core Team is a technical subcommittee that governs the Matrix spec, not Foundation governance, so its purely-technical members are excluded per the crawl instructions — EXCEPT the two who hold Foundation-governance seats: Alexey Rusakov and Richard van der Hoff sit on the Governing Board as the Spec Core Team's two representatives, and Matthew Hodgson (SCT Lead) and Travis Ralston (SCT member) are captured via their Guardian/staff roles.

Its first chapter, Foundation for Public Code North America, is a US 501(c)(3). + +Provenance and freshness caveat: the main site (publiccode.net) is a JavaScript single-page application whose team-bio content could not be extracted as static HTML. This record is drawn from the foundation's own staff manual at about.publiccode.net, which is the declared "source of truth". That manual was last published 28 March 2024, so `as_of` is set to that date; the roster may be stale. `derived` is `org_live` (the foundation's own live site), not wayback. + +Governance: Ben Cerveny is President (main spokesperson, a contracted role via Multiple Ventures BV) and also serves as Chairman of the Board of Directors. The full Board of Directors membership is governed via the general assembly and board-of-directors process (governance-model page, not captured here); only the Chairman is named on the staff page. The organisation deliberately runs a minimal hierarchy; the Chief Executive role was vacant as of the source date. + +Paid vs volunteer: the staff page states staff "are employees" (paid_staff, confidence 1.0). Two roles are explicitly contractors (Ryan Conlan via Angelplasma; Floris Deerenberg via A Studio Called Quest) and are recorded as paid_staff with the billing entity noted in the role. The strategic council is explicitly "a voluntary role and non-remunerated" (volunteer, confidence 1.0); it advises the board and has at most 5 members, appointed for 1-year renewable terms. + +Term dates: strategic council appointments are stated as 1 year (renewable) but no per-person start/end dates are published (null). No staff term dates published. + +Contact, bios: not published per person on the staff/strategic-council pages (null). Per-person bios exist on the JS-gated publiccode.net "who we are" page. diff --git a/_leadership/raspberrypi.md b/_leadership/raspberrypi.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..7393e4e --- /dev/null +++ b/_leadership/raspberrypi.md @@ -0,0 +1,792 @@ +--- +identifier: raspberrypi +commonName: Raspberry Pi Foundation +asOf: 2026-07-25 +sources: +- url: https://www.raspberrypi.org/about/governance + type: org_live + retrieved: 2026-07-25 +- url: https://www.raspberrypi.org/about/meet-the-team + type: org_live + retrieved: 2026-07-25 +people: +- name: John Lazar + personId: null + roles: + - role: Chair of Trustees + roleClass: officer + - role: Trustee + roleClass: board_director + contact: null + bio: John is a software engineer and business leader, and the former Chair and CEO of Metaswitch Networks. + He is currently a General Partner at Enza Capital and President of the Royal Academy of Engineering. + termStart: null + termEnd: null + sourceUrl: https://www.raspberrypi.org/about/governance + derived: org_live + confidence: 1.0 +- name: Anna Bateson + personId: null + roles: + - role: Trustee + roleClass: board_director + contact: null + bio: Anna is the CEO of Guardian Media Group and has held senior marketing roles at major companies + including Google/YouTube, ITV, and MTV Networks UK. + termStart: null + termEnd: null + sourceUrl: https://www.raspberrypi.org/about/governance + derived: org_live + confidence: 1.0 +- name: Amali de Alwis + personId: null + roles: + - role: Trustee + roleClass: board_director + contact: null + bio: Amali is the former CEO of Code First:Girls and former Managing Director of Microsoft for Startups + UK. + termStart: null + termEnd: null + sourceUrl: https://www.raspberrypi.org/about/governance + derived: org_live + confidence: 1.0 +- name: Andrew Sliwinski + personId: null + roles: + - role: Trustee + roleClass: board_director + contact: null + bio: Andrew is a designer, engineer, and educator.

The Raspberry Pi Foundation is a UK charity (registered 1129409, company limited by guarantee), the parent of a group that includes Raspberry Pi Foundation Europe (Hello World Foundation, Ireland), Raspberry Pi Foundation North America, Inc. (US 501(c)(3)), Raspberry Pi Educational Services (India), and Raspberry Pi Foundation Kenya. + +Governance structure: the Foundation is governed by a Board of Trustees, elected by the Membership. John Lazar is Chair of Trustees (tagged `officer` + `board_director`); the other ten are Trustees (`board_director`). The Members are a distinct governance body who elect the trustees, hold the board to account, and advocate for the mission; the page states explicitly that "Trustees and Members are volunteers." Members are captured as role `Member` / role_class `volunteer` (three are designated "Founding Member": David Braben, Eben Upton, Pete Lomas). This membership body is included because it is a genuine foundation-governance organ, not an advisory or project committee; a consumer wanting only the board can filter on `role_class: board_director`. The Ezrah Charitable Trust member seat is recorded under its named representative, David Cohen. + +Paid vs volunteer: trustees and members are unpaid volunteers (stated verbatim, `confidence: 1.0`). The senior staff captured here (Chief Executive Philip Colligan CBE, the Chief Financial / Marketing / Learning / Technology & Product Officers, and the "Director of ..." / Managing Director / Country and US Executive Directors) are paid employees of the Foundation, drawn from the "Our team" staff page and tagged `paid_staff`. + +Staff scope decision: the Team page lists the Foundation's full staff (~200 people). Capturing the entire employee directory is out of scope for a leadership dataset, so only the executive leadership tier is recorded here — C-level officers and roles titled "Director of ...", "Managing Director", "Country Director", and "(US) Executive Director". Rank-and-file staff (Learning Managers, Software Engineers, Coordinators, "Head of ..." and "Senior Manager" roles, etc.) are deliberately excluded. This is a judgement boundary and could be widened if a fuller staff roster is wanted. + +Bios: the Governance and Team pages publish a short bio for nearly every individual; these are stored verbatim in `bio`. Two senior staff (Sofia Mohammed, Nangamso Mtsatse) had no bio text on the page, so their `bio` is null. + +Contact and term dates: not published per person. The org exposes only social/blog links (Who's Who material, not org contact), so per-person `contact` is null; no term dates are stated, so `term_start`/`term_end` are null. Note: a separate corpus file may exist under the slug `raspberrypi2` capturing the 11 trustees only; this `raspberrypi` record is the fuller governance + leadership capture. diff --git a/_leadership/raspberrypi2.md b/_leadership/raspberrypi2.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..40d8827 --- /dev/null +++ b/_leadership/raspberrypi2.md @@ -0,0 +1,25 @@ +--- +identifier: raspberrypi2 +commonName: Raspberry Pi Foundation North America, Inc. +asOf: 2026-07-25 +sources: +- url: https://www.raspberrypi.org/about/ + type: org_live + retrieved: 2026-07-25 +- url: https://www.raspberrypi.org/about/governance + type: org_live + retrieved: 2026-07-25 +people: [] +--- + +# Raspberry Pi Foundation North America, Inc. — Leadership + +Roster not found for this specific legal entity. `people: []` recorded deliberately. + +Raspberry Pi Foundation North America, Inc. is a US 501(c)(3) nonprofit and one member of the Raspberry Pi Foundation Group.

Every figure derives from each foundation's own published pages; absent data is recorded as null rather than guessed. + +## Who publishes their leadership + +Of 86 foundations, 76 publish a current leadership roster and 10 do not. The 10 without a public roster are freesoftwaresupport, idcommons, kernel, kuali, lfcharities, olpc, opencollective, raspberrypi2, wordpress, and xiph. Two of these are legal-entity artefacts rather than true gaps: raspberrypi2 is the Raspberry Pi Foundation's separate North America 501(c)(3), whose own directors are not published (attributing the UK trustees would be incorrect), and several others publish governance only through IRS Form 990 rather than a web page. + +## Board size + +Across the 74 foundations that publish a board, board size runs from 1 to 21 directors, with a median of 7 and a mean of 8.4. The median of 7 holds steady across both volunteer-run and staffed foundations. The largest boards belong to the industry-consortium foundations (sustaining-member or corporate-seat models); the smallest are single-project foundations run by a founder-led council. + +## Paid staff versus volunteers + +The collection records 620 board-director roles, 437 paid-staff roles, 237 officer roles, and 114 explicitly volunteer roles. 48 of 86 foundations list at least one paid staff member. The split is bimodal: a set of well-resourced foundations publish substantial staff pages (Linux Foundation, Eclipse, Creative Commons, KDE, OSI), while a larger set are governed entirely by unpaid volunteers who hold both director and officer roles. Paid-staff classification is stated verbatim where a foundation uses an explicit employment label and inferred at lower confidence where only a "Staff" heading is given. + +## Field coverage, and the case for annotated freshness + +Names and roles are near-universal at full confidence. The optional fields are sparse and uneven: 50% of individuals carry a published bio, 17% carry any per-person contact, and 13% carry a term date. Term dates in particular are rarely stated on leadership pages; tenure is better reconstructed from dated roster snapshots over time than from the current page. This unevenness is exactly why every record carries an `asOf` date, every source a `retrieved` date, and every fact a `confidence` score: the freshness and reliability of each field travels with the data rather than being assumed uniform. + +## Cross-foundation figures + +Entity resolution across all rosters identifies 19 individuals who hold leadership roles at more than one foundation, a small but connective core of the FOSS governance world. The full Who's Who registry, with per-person identifiers, is available alongside this collection. + +## Method + +Rosters were crawled from each foundation's own site (with a small number recovered from the Internet Archive or Wikipedia where the live site was unreachable, tagged accordingly at reduced confidence). Extraction never fabricates: absent fields are null, advisory boards and project-level roles are excluded from the leadership definition, and every person links to the source page the fact came from.
