Hi all, Voting is open for the 3 referenda around the election procedure for Maemo community council elections.
A wiki page has been created for each referendum, where arguments for & against each of the options can be listed. For the moment, these pages are skeletons, but feel free to debate in the Talk page, and perhaps add some arguments for & against in the main page (but they will be heavily moderated to avoid flame-wars). A reminder of the 3 referenda: 1. Election procedure for the next Maemo community council elections: http://wiki.maemo.org/Community_Council/Voting_rights_Q1_2009 The choices are the status quo in the election procedure document (25 karma + 3 month), or removing all requirements. The council is recommending a vote to remove requirements. 2. Election procedure for future Maemo community council elections: http://wiki.maemo.org/Community_Council/Council_voting_rights The choices are the status quo, lowering the karma requirement to 10, and maintaining a 3 month requirement for accounts, lowering the requirement to 10 *or* 1 year since account creation, whichever comes first, or removing all requirements of karma and account age. The council is recommending lowering the karma requirement to 10, and maintaining a 3 month account creation limit. 3. Counting method: http://wiki.maemo.org/Community_Council/Counting_methods Three choices are proposed: first past the post, preferential voting using single transferrable vote, or reweighted range voting. Voting is open now, until next Monday, the 23rd of February.
