Restructuring of SAGE Governance

Executive Summary
The USENIX Board of Directors, in conjunction with the SAGE Executive Committee, have decided that the current Special Technical Group (STG) model of governing SAGE has outgrown its usefulness. Beginning in July, SAGE will cease to be an STG and will instead be governed by a subcommittee comprised of USENIX Board members and members of the SAGE community. The SAGE Executive Committee has been empowered to explore and undertake steps to create a separate nonprofit association to which SAGE's assets will be transferred upon successful completion of defined milestones.

Whether SAGE remains within USENIX or spins off as a separate organization, USENIX is dedicated to ensuring that current SAGE benefits and services are maintained. In particular:

  • USENIX values the system administrators in its membership.
  • USENIX will ensure that system administration services are supplied to its members.
If a nonprofit SAGE organization is formed, USENIX will ensure an orderly transition of benefits and services to the new organization and will cooperate with that organization to the mutual benefit of members of both organizations.
