Hi, A potentially trivial change would be to keep the process the same, but run through the wiki---i.e. use a wiki page as the venue for nominators to log in and update/edit. Freeze the page after a certain date, and now there's an archived copy of the process. Anyone interested in real-time updates can simply log in and "follow" the page, others can visit the page and check the results as they see fit.
Note, this is conceptually the same process for nomination and voting, but it is collated via the wiki instead of email. This also doesn't involve additional work to create an automated system. just a few thoughts from an interested lurker... /Brandon On 08/09/2017 11:34, Angelos Tzotsos wrote: > Hi, > > There was a discussion with the CROs at yesterday's board meeting, and a > proposal to use an automated system for nominations came up. > > Cheers, > Angelos > > On 09/08/2017 01:01 PM, Till Adams wrote: >> Jeroen, >> >> good motion!
