I nominate myself:
David Shone, Director of Product- Data & Digital, ISDA
Rationale: I feel I have successfully chaired the SWG during its inaugural year, overseeing the instigation of formal governance, working to corral the efforts of the sponsoring trade associations for the good of the community, including securing funding promises for 2025. I feel I am well respected by the community with good relationships with all key contributors and maintainers.
There is more work to do, and consistency in leadership for another year would be of benefit to the community.
Additionally I received an award from FINOS at June's OSFF to recognise my efforts as chair this year.
