#198 Replace Program Manager with Operations Architect
Merged by jonatoni. Opened by mattdm.
Fedora-Council/ mattdm/council-docs foa  into  main

The Fedora Council charter assumed the existence of a funded-by-Red-Hat Program Manager role. That position no longer exists. However, Red Hat is hiring for a new role to support Fedora. This updates our charter to include that position instead.

Please do not merge until to-be-filed-soon council ticket is resolved.

Looks reasonable.

Should we use the FPgM page as the reference for the FOA role page instead, and use an Antora page alias to redirect traffic from the old page to the new page? Or is there a strong reason that the roles should be documented separately?

If we keep both, then we probably need some clear notation on the FPgM page that the role does not exist anymore, and its figurative successor is the FOA role.

I see no reason to retain the FPgM role information at this point. The role is now replaced with the Fedora Operations Architect. How the work is divided up may be different, but FPgM does not exist anymore and mentioning it going forward is only going to lead to confusion. Let's adopt the new title and use it consistently.

My preference would be to overwrite the FPgM page with the Ops Architect page instead of keeping both. I recall @bcotton weighing in too, I think in the Council chat room, that he was fine with the page being updated with the new title and retaining some degree of historical reference for the past FPgMs in the new Ops Architect page.

Edit: It was on Fedora Discussion.

This Pull Request is now updated to address the feedback raised earlier (i.e. no more FPgM page) and to also fully expand the Fedora Operations Architect description. This is ready for review at the next Fedora Council meeting.

Discussed in 2023-10-25 Council meeting.


This was approved with six votes per Fedora-Council/tickets#462. With that in mind, I am going to merge this! :clapper:
