Hi,

It would also be nice to actually get an email to vote. I haven't seen
one. :) Not that I'm not ok with the name, just saying that it may be
worth exploring what happened.

Terribly sorry about that!

Last elections (for O and P) we generated such a flood of unexpected email that the admins at CMU thought something had been hacked. This led to the introduction of a bunch of rate limiting and other mitigation in the election software (yay us) This time I had a script submitting information that honored the rate-limit and it took an entire week to submit all the emails ... and still some folks did not receive one (but we also can't track down what happened, since it's someone else's hosted service)

The summary is - I think that we may have grown too large to continue to make use of the free service that CMU is providing- although we're obviously grateful to them for providing the service thus far.

We've started some initial discussions about hosting our own (after all, our mailing list server sends way more mail quite successfully every day) but haven't made a full plan yet.

    It would be nice if there was a bit more transparency on the "legal
    risk" (conflicts with another project, etc), but thanks for passing on
    the information none-the-less. I, for one, welcome our new "Rocky"
    overlord project name :)

    Cheers,
