[Council] Q2 2014 Community Council Election Announcement
Dear friends and Maemoans, it has been a busy six months, and again it is time to elect a new Community Council for us.
The last election finished on Saturday 14th of December 2013 so the new election should be done by Saturday 14th of June 2014. UPDATE: New Schedule due to missing candidates! Nomination period is extended by one month! The schedule of the voting is as follows:
Currently there is lots of things going on, as the Maemo council is now the one unified Council, acting on behalf of the whole Maemo Community and its legal representation bodies, the Maemo e.V. (registered association, successor to HiFo) and the Hildon Foundation. On behalf of the outgoing community council, Jussi Ohenoja Link: Original article. |

Re: [Council] Q2 2014 Community Council Election Announcement
Now, we are in need of candidates for Maemo Council.
Please consider if you would want to partake in the building of this community, and to step forward to volunteer for the Council. The procedure is simple, just introduce yourself on the Maemo mailing list maemo-community@maemo.org and post a short entry here. |
Re: [Council] Q2 2014 Community Council Election Announcement
Just in case you missed the editing of the first post - nomination period got extended by 1 month, due to lack of candidates/nominations, sadly...
Unfortunately, auto-karma-calculation for wiki-contributions is f*cked up at the moment, the issue is under investigation. It remains to be seen if this can be fixed in time, but thanks to sixwheeldbeast, there is a wiki-page listing all eligible candidates untill 2014-05-20. If you want to candidate for council, but don't find yourself on the list, please holler here or shoot a mail at council(at)maemo.org AND board(at)maemo.org to make sure it won't be missed. Please everybody interested in the continuance of this community consider to self-nominate and please do vote next month! |

I composed my list-of-people-I'd-like-to-nominate based on 2 criterias: 1. Positive attitude to the Maeo Community, contribution to the community, general helpfulness towards other Maemoans. 2. Garage account with enough Karma to be eligible as a candidate. The 2nd point is somewhat negotiatible as the amount of Karma needed can be amended by Council if the candidate is recognized as valuable member, but the Garage account is mandatory AFAIK. Be assured that if you'd qualify on the 2nd point you would be high on my list of candidates. |
Re: [Council] Q2 2014 Community Council Election Announcement
Right, here's the wiki-page on how to
Link talk.maemo.org account with maemo.org profile This is a mandatory procedure. |

Similar issue from Oct 2013 elections: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...5&postcount=55
Was this changed by one of our councils or technologists didn't manage to migrate without featureloss? |
Re: [Council] Q2 2014 Community Council Election Announcement
This might be treated as: oops we made a mistake, working on a fix, or as a thing that disqualifies previous elections based on garage accounts only, which would also invalidate all decisions made by councillors elected in a wrong way, so might be worth checking. All the bylaws shitflinging could be null and we might still have a connection to Nokie noone expectéd

Only a maemo.org account is required in order to vote or be voted for. Garage or Talk account is optional and you may gain Karma if you link your profiles, if that isn't broken too due to midgard craziness. That still doesn't explain why szopin didn't get a token though... :confused: But afaik, tokens can be sent manually. |
Re: [Council] Q2 2014 Community Council Election Announcement
Time To Vote!

Re: [Council] Q2 2014 Community Council Election Announcement
Mmh, I might be confused here, as there are so many accounts, I was under the impression that (maemo.org account == garage account).
If my posting alarmed anyone, be assured that the system behaves exactly like on previous elections! Now, in case you have not voted in any previous election, and have not ever/yet received an election token by mail, then contact me and I'll see what can be done. It is like @Win7Mac says, the election tokens can also be generated manually if you were for some reason excluded from the electorate on the automatic run. |
Re: [Council] Q2 2014 Community Council Election Announcement
VOTING is now OPEN
Go to http://maemo.org/vote/vote.php?election_id=37 and log in with your email address and token sent to you to that address to vote. In case you still have not received your voting token, please contact me. There has already been one case where the token was sent to old, unused mailbox. |
Re: [Council] Q2 2014 Community Council Election Announcement
I gave my vote a minute ago :) Good luck to all participants!

Re: [Council] Q2 2014 Community Council Election Announcement
I've done my Maemo duty - voted
|
Re: [Council] Q2 2014 Community Council Election Announcement
I hope that this time there will be more of us voting than the last time!!!
maemo wake up!!! Time to vote!!! |
Re: [Council] Q2 2014 Community Council Election Announcement
Late to the party but garage accounts were always == maemo.org == wiki accounts. (At least since 2009, I wasn't here before that) so yeah, nothing to worry about.
|
Re: [Council] Q2 2014 Community Council Election Announcement
i already voted
|
Re: [Council] Q2 2014 Community Council Election Announcement
voting period should be extended a bit i think
|
Re: [Council] Q2 2014 Community Council Election Announcement
The voting period is set to one week, and that should suffice.
There's still time until over the weekend to vote, and I do hope that as many Maemoans as possible cast their ballot. |
