In Reply to: [gentoo-dev-announce] Voting for the Council 2011-2012 Election begins by Nirbheek Chauhan
1 Hello folks!
2
3 This is a reminder to everyone that you should vote for the 2011
4 council election before:
5
6 July 3rd 23:59:59 UTC*
7
8 Which means you have today (2nd July, Saturday) and tomorrow (3rd
9 July, Sunday) to vote. A total of 48hrs. Don't wait for Monday because
10 the voting period will be over by then!
11
12 The current turnout is just 31%, which is lower than last year, so
13 please go and vote! People are highly recommended to nag eligible
14 voters to vote. :-)
15
16 Voting instructions can be found in the motd of your home directory on
17 dev.gentoo.org. See `votify --help` for more details. The current
18 election is "council-201106". "_reopen_nominations" is being used in
19 the current election, which can be treated like any other candidate.
20
21 Looking forward to seeing a good turnout!
22
23 On behalf of the election officials,

26
27 *: voting actually ends on July 4th 00:00:01 UTC, aka 20110704000000UTC.
