Hi, all Just a quick heads-up. I've now set up the GNOME voting software to maemo.org as requested by Dave Neary.
The databases and software are now running. When voting starts on Sep 2nd, we still need to: * Generate tmp auth tokens (create-tmp-tokens.pl, then mysql maemoelections < tokens.txt) * Send email to voters (mail-instructions.pl maildata.txt instructions.txt) * They visit the site, enter email address & auth token * We cross-check against the tmp_token table to ensure they're them * We give them a newly generated token, which we store in anon_token, which guarantees anonymity for their vote. They keep this token to validate their vote after the event. We also delete the tmp token we were using for them, to indicate that they've voted. Note that we don't store a correspondence between the two. * We bring them to a voting page, they vote. (list courtesy of Dave) Note: the email template is editable in https://garage.maemo.org/plugins/scmsvn/viewcvs.php/maemo-elections/scripts/instructions.txt?revision=863&root=maemo2midgard&view=markup The whole voting software runs as SVN checkout in /usr/share/midgard/svn/maemo2midgard/maemo-elections on dratini, in case updates are needed. /Henri -- Henri Bergius Nemein - Web Craftsmanship http://nemein.com _______________________________________________ maemo-community mailing list [email protected] https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-community
