That's precisely what I mean !

Thanks, Bruce,
Filia



I did not see Jiri or Filia or anyone objecting to a secret ballot.

Hi again!
Since yesterday, we got 3 more votes/opinions on how to conduct WDDM
Board
elections: 1 on the site for secret ballot (with option to disclose
afterwards), and 2 by e-mail for open vote. So it's now 3 votes for open
vote,
to 4 for secret vote (3.5 for secret and 3.5 for open if you want). So
that's
no consensus at all. According to the consensus-based simple initial
rules
I
was advocating two years ago at WDDM relaunch, we should now wait and
continue
discussion until better consensus is reached.
But this charter/board business has been already dragging long
enough.
So
what do you say to the following compromise: Let's use both methods for
this
election. Those who prefer open vote may send in their vote by e-mail
(as
Filia
and Jiri more or less have already done), and those who prefer the
secret
ballot could do it on the voting page on the WDDM site (for this hybrid
case I
would not scramble voter IDs in the voting database to make sure
somebody
does
not vote both by e-mail and on the site).
If you agree with this, no action is needed. You need to reply only
if
you
object a hybrid vote. I'll wait for another day to see if there are any
objections.
