[Council] Q2 2016 Community Council Election Announcement
 

Update:
Dear community,

we found out there's a flaw in the announcement of the ongoing council
election. The timetable announced does not leave enough time between
nomination and election period. Basically the "contemplation period" was
not adhered as supposed.
Also, since no candidacy has been officially declared via this mailing
list so far, current Council decided to postpone the election.

The schedule now is as follows (all deadlines 23:59 UTC):
- Election announced: 27 March 2016
- Deadline for karma for electorate: 17 April 2016
- Nomination period: 27 March 2016 - 17 April 2016 (Sunday),
Candidates should have posted to Mailing list by then
- List of candidates announced: ~ 18 April 2016
- Contemplation period: 18 April 2016 - 24 April 2016
- Election period: 25 April 2016 - 1 May 2016 (Sunday)
- Results announced: ~ 2 May 2016

On behalf of the outgoing Council



Old post:
Dear friends and Maemoans, six months and even a bit more has passed and again it is time to elect a new Community Council for us.



The last election finished on Saturday 13th of September 2015.



The schedule of the voting is as follows:

• Nomination period starts on next Sunday 27th of March 2016 and continues until 10th of April 2016.
• Election period starts on Sunday 10th of April 2016 and continues until 17th of April 2016.

To get our community to continue strong, we need fresh people with fresh viewpoints to carry on the torch, so please think about volunteering for Maemo Council.



On behalf of the outgoing community council,



Jussi Ohenoja

Thank you Jussi for all the contributions. Already made my decision for nomination. Wait for the formal process.

Edit: Was a bit ambiguous... I'm not nominating myself, was meant to nominate someone else...;)

Oh gosh, I didn't see that. I have a bit of free time coming up so why not. I know absolutely nothing about what's involved though. Is there a description somewhere?
