Hi Cameron

Can you please open an issue on the OSGeo issue tracker.
Be specific on the "few" "minor" tweaks that you think are needed to make
it more "intuitive" to voters.
Depending on the "difficulty" of the tweak implementation, we can do the
appropriate changes for the this year's Board Elections or for the next
year's elections.


Vicky
I like to put in quotes words that are subjective, for example:
The crickets in this taco are "delicious"
Because what is "delicious" for me, might not be for you.

Hi Jorge,

I did try the form, and later discovered that there was a link to each 
members' profile. (It wasn't obvious to me at first glance as the 
styling used didn't make it look like a link to me).


I agree with Maria that this simpler process of not swamping the email 
list was better, and there are only a few minor tweaks required to make 
it more intuitive to voters.


Cheers, Cameron

Hi Cameron,

Thanks for the feedback. The list is available at:
https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/New_Member_Nominations_2018

You can reach the link from https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Election_2018

In the LimeSurvey form, there is a link for each nominee that points to
this list. Before you second a nomination, you can see why that person
was nominated. For those who have written profile, there is also a link
to that.

Have you tried the form? Please do it ASAP and tell us if we need to
improve something.

Thanks,

Jorge (CRO helper)

Vasile, Vicky, Jorge,

I can't seem to find a list of nominations for new charter members which
descriptions about why they have been nominated. I've used such a list
in the past to assess whether I'd vote for someone or not.

I suggest publishing on this page
https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Election_2018, and if not too late, adding
to the Limesurvey page.

Cheers, Cameron

Hi Cameron,

Thanks for the feedback. The list is available at:

You can reach the link from https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Election_2018

In the LimeSurvey form, there is a link for each nominee that points to

2018-10-20 Thread María Arias de Reyna
Hi,

Surprisingly I prefer this year's procedure. All information is there at
the moment of voting on the links and there hasn't been all the noise from
other years that distract from what we really want to know: who they are
and what they do.
