Yes, it was reading jmb's mail and mentally thinking, hey, why is the |
| 17 |
timestamp shown as 20 mins before the end of the election. |

Action-item: make countify print 'FINAL' stats, and modify the cronjob |
| 20 |
to clearly state 'INTERIM' |

Later goals should really be moving the ballot submission/collection |
| 23 |
system to something like Debian's balloting system that requires |
| 24 |
GPG-signing ballots (and optionally encryption). We can keep votify for |
| 25 |
tabulation or switch to a voting engine, since I'm not sure if Debian |
| 26 |
uses the same STV tabulation method we do. |
