Just to clarify:
Actually, neals script uses openstv-run-election which is included in the "OpenSTV Software". So neals script just performs the "extended" voting process as proposed by neal using the standard "OpenSTV Software" package.

Edit:
This post is not intended to express or imply a preference for any of the proposed voting systems.
As I submitted an app to the contest myself I don't feel right on deciding the voting system to be used.
Edit2:
I also didn't vote for the very same reason.

does it mean that nemein should be able to deliver the final, official results using the "extended voting"?

my last email:
Okay, and if we'd run the election like if it would be for just one seat -> 1st place, then for two seats -> second place, and so on?

Please see the edits in my last post and please excuse me that I cannot help in this decision.

my last email:
Is it possible to use the same counting method we always used for the maemo
community council elections?

Thanks!
Cosimo
We are unable to use this because we need a ranking. "Who got the most votes? - Who is the second?"

Interesting would be if the borda-count system would deliver those out of the box. It should... but...

Only in my imagination... I don't own the software - so I don't know what output the software would produce if we select "borda-count".
I simply studied the documentation at their web page. This was one of the election systems I was able to understand without many problems.

Aaaah... okay. I read only this webpage: openstv download (5$)

I have now only my N9 with me. Will try to find some time this evening.

EDIT: Sorry, got a commitment for my appointment this evening. So perhaps tomorrow or today late at night.
