Very true, but it’s nice to see the candidates’ answers collected in a single 
place. I know that I don’t have the time to search through meeting and IRC 
archives to find the answers for the people I am considering voting for.

There isn’t really a need for the self-nomination period to be very long. 
Announce it, say, a week before nominations open, and give candidates a few 
days to post their nominations. History has shown that the majority of 
candidates announce near the end of the period, and as a former nominee, I can 
say that a lot of that was due to procrastination.

I was glad to see a good response to the questions this time, and the answers 
(and non-answers) strongly influenced my vote. So I would rather see a shorter 
nomination period and a longer “campaign” period in the future.

Indeed, by my quick count we had 84 E-mails to the list for
questions to and answers from the candidates (not including
candidacy/platform statements, announcements from election
officials, et cetera). Also, it's entirely legitimate for these
discussions to continue into the voting week as some voters may wait
until toward the end of the period to make up their minds on how to
rank various candidates (I know I did, at least).


It would also be good to see some discussion of those issues outside
of campaign periods. Some of the questions, like the one about user
perspectives held by the candidates, were clearly meant to elicit
more info to help make a choice in the election. The discussion of
inclusiveness shouldn't be reserved for the campaign period, though.


+1K

What trigger the question is that many candidates mentioned inclusiveness and
diversity in their candidacies. Since it's a topic that I believe is sensitive
and vibrant in our industry, I felt it was fair to dive into it further before
the voting period. It definitely influenced the way I voted.

This said, I agree we should have this kind of discussions more often than not
and I intend to pursue this topic further.

I realize this doesn't mean you can't keep asking questions once the actual
election voting start but I wonder if we should cut a few days from the
nomination and give it to the campaigning.


I can't find anything that documents how long the nomination period
needed to be, perhaps I missed it?  So we could do this but it's already
quite short.  So more likely we could just extend the Campaigning period
if that's the consensus.


Duration of campaigning period is not mandated by the TC charter, so
left at the appreciation of election officials.


The whole election takes close to 3 weeks of officials time so I'd like
to ask we be mindful of that before we extend things too much


It's clearly a balance between having interesting discussions and
triggering election fatigue. I'd say we need to have /some/ campaigning
time but not too much :)

Ideally discussions would start once people self-nominate, and we could
keep the period between nomination close and election start relatively
short (3/4 business days max).


As an observation, participating in the elections (not only as an election
official but also as a candidate) can be stressful.

I personally don't think the campaing period was too short. I saw enough
interactions between candidates and the rest of the community, which was useful
for me to make up my mind and vote. This is, of course, my own view and I don't
mean to imply David's view is not valid.

I would be a bit hesitant to make the total election period too long but I'm
sure we cand adjust a few things here and there. I would also prefer waiting
until the nomination period is closed to start discussion. It might not feel
fair if the discussions start early and then some candidacies use the data from
the discussions as promotion. Again, personal preference.

You can insert this line into the table above to replace the official
10/2017 election.

|10/2017  |   2696  ( -15.51) |   420   (  -1.64) | 15.58   (  
16.42) |

So ~10% of all change owners were excluded due to not being Foundation
members.

Yours Tony.

So this is clearly bogus because we don't have any way of knowing who
voted and therefore can't adjust the number of votes cast:
+-+---+---+---+
|   Election  | Electorate  (delta %) | Voted   (delta %) | Turnout %   (delta 
%) |
+-+---+---+---+
|10/2017  |   2430  ( -23.85) |   420   (  -1.64) | 17.28   (  
29.16) |
|   1 change  |   2373  (  -2.35) |   420   (   0.00) | 17.70   (   
2.40) |
|   5 changes |   1162  ( -51.03) |   420   (   0.00) | 36.14   (

+-+---+---+---+

However it gives you some idea of the electorate size at the various
thresholds.  This is public data I just happen to have it quick access
to it.

Sure, that'd be closer but we still don't really have anyway to know who
from that set is voting.

I did a baseline comparison of the old and new methods as they were
developed, and as of a few days before the most recent PTL elections
the percentage of "old" TC electorate who lacked discoverable
foundation member profiles (either because of no matching E-mail
addresses or lapsed membership due to a failure to vote in board
elections) was right at 10%. It's likely to have diverged a little since
that time (my guess is that it won't have moved much), but the
election officials _should_ be able to produce this number trivially
since the structured data output by the validation script includes
all contributors and merely flags the "member" contributors eligible
to vote by including their discovered OpenStack Foundation
Individual Member Id numbers.

I don't have a feel for with the Pike electorate decreased but my gut
feel is that it was organic drop-off possibly in part to the shorter
Ocata development cycle.  The Queens drop-off was due to a new[1]
membership API being available that meant we could validate Foundation
membership instead of using gerrit permission as a proxy.


Can we maybe calculate the electorate size using the old method as well 
so that we can quantify how much of the dropoff (in theory it could be 
more than 100%) was due to the change in effective eligibility criteria 
vs. organic change in the number of contributors?


- ZB


I'd like to call out that with Pike we had a very dramatic decrease in
voter turnout both in absolute and relative terms.  As a community it's
worth trying to understand whether this is a problem and/or a trend that
needs to change.

Yours Tony.

Yup, the table makes that pretty visible.


I think we can't really make much in the way of conclusions about
the turnout data without comparing it with contributor engagement in
general. If many of the eligible voters have only barely crossed the

Dunno. Obviously it would be great if more people voted.

One facet of this trends may not be negative:

As we make it more and more clear that TC activity is more about duties
than about rights (more about stewardship then leadership), people care
a bit less about specific individuals and are less motivated by the vote
itself. If the activity of the TC was a lot more conflict and a lot less
consensus (as it used to be in the past) then I think people would care
more about representation of their interests and who exactly ends up
being elected.

Very interesting analysis.
I agree, we should care about not repeating this Pike trend. It looks
like Queens is better in terms of turnout (see the amazing positive
delta!). However, I can't help but noticing that the trend for
turnouts is slowly reducing (excluding some outliers) since the
beginning of these stats.

Any idea on how to improve that?

On top of that, thanks to all the candidates, and congratulations!

Hi All,
With the election behind us it's somewhat traditional to look at
some simple stats from the elections:

+--+---+---+---+

I don't have a feel for with the Pike electorate decreased but my gut
feel is that it was organic drop-off possibly in part to the shorter
Ocata development cycle.  The Queens drop-off was due to a new[1]
membership API being available that meant we could validate Foundation
membership instead of using gerrit permission as a proxy.

I'd like to call out that with Pike we had a very dramatic decrease in
voter turnout both in absolute and relative terms.  As a community it's
worth trying to understand whether this is a problem and/or a trend that
needs to change.

Yours Tony.
