*** xes has joined #maemo-meeting00:02
juicemehi00:02
Win7Macextend it, I'd say, it's too messed up :(00:04
juicemeyes, that is what I am thinking00:05
juicemeone week extension00:05
juicemedarn I really sucked with the datews00:05
Win7Mac;)00:05
juicememissed even my own canduidacy declaration :(00:05
Win7Macwe're all human...00:06
juicemeya, and it shows :)00:06
juicemewell, the new dates would be:00:07
juicemenomination until saturday 8.800:07
juicemecontemplation 9.8 ... 15.800:08
juicemevoting 16.8 ... 22.800:08
juicemeso we push all dates one week forward00:08
juicemeand all that have already stepped forward with confirming will be taken as confirmed and we will take further confirmations on.00:09
Win7MacSounds plausible00:10
Win7Macwhile we have it, shouldn't we reconsider "Contemplation period"? - shouldn't it be that nominees contemplate? - Esp. for the late-ins...00:10
juicemeI have always taken it means a period of time that fellw members may contemplate the candidates, ask them questions etc. so that they can make up teir minds whom to vote.00:12
Win7MacRE: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=1478526&postcount=2900:12
juicemeso it is for the community members rathert than for candidates.00:12
Win7Macjuiceme, yes, fully true00:12
Win7Macbut why not for nominees too?00:14
juicemesure00:15
juicemeso that it is enough that candidates are nominated in nomination period, and need to accept during the contemplation period?00:15
juicemecould be understood that way too00:16
juicemeI think our rules are missing that00:16
Win7Macthe question is not how it could be understood but what's good for us, I guess00:17
Win7MacIf there's room for approvement, do it!00:18
juicemeyes, and what is good needs to be documented clearly :)00:18
juicemenow that I check the election rules on wiki, it says only that "Nominations will be accepted 2 weeks before the election begins from any community member with a karma of 100 or above." and "Elections last for 1 week."00:21
juicemethere is no official mention of "contemplation period", it seems it has only been used as a convenience00:22
juicemeah00:23
juicemeit also says that in order for not enough candidates, nomination period should be extended by 4 weeks00:23
juicemethat seems a bit excessive?00:23
juicemethat's it then. 4 weeks is in the rules, so that's what we'll have to do.00:24
Win7Macdone in order to higher the chance for candidates, I guess, MC eV adopted that from http://wiki.maemo.org/Community_Council/Election_process00:25
Win7Mac*for more candidates...00:26
juicemeyes00:26
Win7Mactopic for another referendum... ;)00:27
juicemefor later, let's not change the one we are having now!!00:28
juicemeso.00:28
juiceme4 weeks extension00:28
Win7Maci said *another*...00:28
juiceme*grin*00:28
juicemenomination will lastu until 29.800:29
Win7Macsucks, but for the sake of our own rules...00:29
juicemecontemplation 30.8 ... 5.900:29
juicemeelections 6.9 ... 12.900:30
juicemewe just have to do it that way, it has been documented.00:30
juicemenow, I'd like to have rest of the councillors to agree.00:31
juicemenone here even though I called for immediate IRC meetup00:31
juicemebut mails have been sent and this is on irclog00:31
juicemeso, I am preparing to announce this on TMO and ML soon.00:32
