Re: Jenkins Elections Process Question

2020-09-24 Thread Oleg Nenashev
Hi all,

The draft voting form is available 
here: 
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSffkarKvwsK0mc21-SmLzEoGsp_uyvloXQeqHzLxvdkMvXiNg/viewform?usp=sf_link

Changes summary from yesterday:

   - I have documented the alternate sign-up flow 
   here: https://github.com/jenkins-infra/jenkins.io/pull/3762
   - I have enabled it in the sign-up form for now, but I am ready to 
   rollback if there are concerns. 
   - I also enforced sending the form confirmation to responders, it might 
   be an additional safety net preventing email tampering.  

Best regards,
Oleg

Unfortunately it is too late to create new service. Its future is also 
unclear taking the identity management discussions in the infrastructure 
team.
For now I am going to proceed with creating a new mailing list as a second 
sign-up way and adjusting the process documentation accordingly.

It hurts me to say that but we already ask contributors to use a google account 
to follow discussion happening here so asking people to use their google 
account to vote shouldn't be a major concerned. But we would have no way to 
match a google account with a jenkins account...

Otherwise we already have oauth-proxy integrated with our ldap database, so we 
could write a small application that read the username field from the oauth 
token generated once we go to something like 'register.jenkins.io'.

IMHO asking people to register to a mailing list like 
jenkinsci-electi...@googlegroups.com  seems the 
easier and more sustainable solution. We could by default block new 
registrations during the pre- election period, several weeks before  and we 
would only accepted people who can show a contribution done before the 
pre-election period.

It would make sense, though I am not sure how another email domain would
make a difference there. Sending emails to Google addresses is not blocked
in China from what I know. CDF might be able to set up an email for us, but
I am not sure about timing. If we want to start the sign-up process on Sep
24 as planned, it would be quite a challenge to get the email in time.

Any thoughts from others?

 Apart from duplicate voting, it also prevents from submitting voting
 sign-up forms for other individuals. If we do not use a Google account or
 any other authentication service, anyone will be able to submit a form for
 anyone else, including doing submissions for participants who may not want
 their emails to be stored and who do not want to receive communications
 from the Jenkins project. It increases the risk of abuse for the voting
 sign-up system.

 We do not want to rely solely on Jenkins LDAP, but I think we need some
 kind of identity management. Google Auth could bridge the gap, as one of
 the options we can rollout quickly. We de-facto require it for many other
 contribution areas.

Wouldn't it make sense for the fallback email to be something other than
google then?

cd.foundation is using mailgun (according to MX records), so maybe they
could setup jenkins-2020-elections@cd.foundation that forwards to
google/the board, so there's no issues.

It will definitely help contributors in areas where Google services are

 Hi Everyone,

 The Jenkins Governance Board Elections Committee is currently
 implementing the process which has been defined for Governance Board and
 Officer Elections. As part of this, we are creating the form that will be
 used for signing up to participate in the elections. We need to collect
 email addresses as part of the process. We are using a Google Form for the
 sign-up and it provides a mechanism to collect email addresses, but it
 requires users to login to a Google account when using the Google Forms
 mechanism. It does allow us to reduce the possibility of duplicate voting.
 We will not keep the data after the voting. Another option would be to just
 have a short text input that accepts an email address and we would collect
 it that way. We would like the opinions of those on this list to determine
 whether this is acceptable or not. We need the email addresses in order to
 communicate if there are issues in the contribution information as well as
 to add the folks to the Condorcet vote.

 Please let us know ASAP your thoughts on this.

 Regards,

 Alex Earl

I think we should use Google Auth to bridge the gap as you've suggested.

Forms mechanism. It does allow us to reduce the possibility of duplicate 
voting.  

Apart from duplicate voting, it also prevents from submitting voting 
sign-up forms for other individuals. If we do not use a Google account or 
any other authentication service, anyone will be able to submit a form for 
anyone else, including doing submissions for participants who may not want 
their emails to be stored and who do not want to receive communications 
from the Jenkins project. It increases the risk of abuse for the voting 
sign-up system.

We do not want to rely solely on Jenkins LDAP, but I think we need some 
kind of identity management. Google Auth could bridge the gap, as one of 
the options we can rollout quickly. We de-facto require it for many other 
contribution areas.

Best regards,
Oleg

Personally I don't think we should be forcing people to sign up for
third-party services just to be able to vote on Jenkins related matters.
There may be good reasons that people have for not wanting to create a
Google account.

Re: Jenkins Elections Process Question

Just to clarify, the two options are

1) Use Google Forms built-in method for collecting email addresses, this
requires a Google Account
2) Use a short text input in the Google Form to collection email addresses,
this does NOT require a Google Account

Jenkins Elections Process Question

2020-09-21 Thread Slide
Hi Everyone,

The Jenkins Governance Board Elections Committee is currently implementing
the process which has been defined for Governance Board and Officer
Elections. As part of this, we are creating the form that will be used for
signing up to participate in the elections. We need to collect email
addresses as part of the process. We are using a Google Form for the
sign-up and it provides a mechanism to collect email addresses, but it
requires users to login to a Google account when using the Google Forms
mechanism. It does allow us to reduce the possibility of duplicate voting.
We will not keep the data after the voting. Another option would be to just
have a short text input that accepts an email address and we would collect
it that way. We would like the opinions of those on this list to determine
whether this is acceptable or not. We need the email addresses in order to
communicate if there are issues in the contribution information as well as
to add the folks to the Condorcet vote.

Please let us know ASAP your thoughts on this.

Regards,

Alex Earl
