Final call for votes for the debian project leader election 2006
Hi, At the time of writing, less than two days before the end of the vote, the standing are still lower than expected; here is a comparison with recent years (all but 2006 numbers are the final tally number): === |||Total # of| |Valid|Unique|Rejects|| Multiple || ||Year|Developers|Quorum|Votes|Voters| |% Voting| of Quorum|| --- ||1999| 347 | 27.90| | 208 | | 59.94 | 7.45|| ||2000| 347 | 43.24| | 216 | | 62.25 | 7.74|| ||2001| ?? | ?? | | 311 | || || ||2002| 939 | 45.96| 509 | 475 | 122 | 50.58 | 10.34|| ||2003| 831 | 43.24| 510 | 488 | 200 | 58.72 | 11.28|| ||2004| 908 | 45.20| 506 | 482 | 52 | 53.08 | 10.66|| ||2005| 965 | 46.60| 531 | 504 | 69 | 52.23 | 10.82|| ||2006| 972 | 46.88| 319 | 308 | 31 | 31.69 | 6.57|| === As you can see, we are still shy of the 1/3rd mark. If you have been waiting for the last minute to cast your vote, this is it. I would not advice waiting for the 11th hour, since mistakes happen: people forget to sign their ballot, send it to the wrong address, or have problems with their MUA mangling the ballot; leave it too late and you shall not have time to correct the error. So, if you have not yet voted, go vote. manoj FINAL CALL FOR VOTES FOR THE DEBIAN PROJECT LEADER ELECTION 2006 - --- - --- --- -- --- -- Voting period starts 00:00:01 UTC on March 19th, 2006.

Third call for votes for the debian project leader election 2006
Hi, At the time of writing, a couple of hours into the third (and final) week of the vote, we are still at a low ebb for voter participation, though not by a huge margin. I do note, though, that more people have gone back and re-cast their ballot this year than previously, lending some credence to the theory that this year people are just taking longer to muddle through deciding on their ballot. === |||Total # of| |Valid|Unique|Rejects|| Multiple || ||Year|Developers|Quorum|Votes|Voters| |% Voting| of Quorum|| --- ||2002| 939 | 45.96| | 342 | | 36.42 | 7.44|| ||2003| 831 | 43.24| | 315 | | 37.90 | 7.28|| ||2004| 908 | 45.20| 351 | 341 | 47 | 37.55 | 7.54|| ||2005| 964 | 46.57| 329 | 311 | 43 | 32.26 | 6.68|| ||2006| 972 | 46.89| 234 | 227 | 25 | 23.35 | 4.84|| === manoj Voting period starts 00:00:01 UTC on March 19th, 2006.

* Anthony DeRobertis [Sun, 19 Mar 2006 00:44:46 -0500]: Doesn't 'r' use reply-to and 'L' use Mail-Followup-To? Yes. I don't know him but me, I map 'r' to 'L' (iow, use M-F-T) in folders that contain list mail, so that 'r' always does the most common action, which for lists is to reply on list. This way, when reading mail, I only have to press 'r' always, except when I want a private reply, and since this is a out-of-the-norm scenario, I remember to press another key (incidentally, 'L'). Some people think this is crack, but works for me very well.
