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 the Community 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 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

Sorry for the inconvenience.
On behalf of the outgoing Council

Wikipage edited accordingly.
