Describe the solution you'd like

We need to implement functionality to sync OWASP Board of Directors (BOD) members into the Nest system for a given election year. The source of truth for candidates is the https://github.com/OWASP/www-board/blob/master/_data/board-history.yml

This task involves:

• Parsing YAML files in the source repository to extract candidate names.

• Creating EntityMember instances for each candidate:

  • role must be set to EntityMember.Role.MEMBER.
  • The EntityMember should be linked to the corresponding BoardOfDirectors instance for the correct year.

• Preparing for further manual verification:

  • The created candidates will be fuzzy matched against existing github.User instances to link them automatically where possible.
  • The final verification and confirmation will be done manually.

Are you going to work on implementing this?

• Yes
• No
