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.
