I somehow managed to completely overlook the elections starting, and by |
11 |
the time I got around to checking my copious amounts of email, and had |
12 |
free time to delve into the swamp lands of -project, .... well, the |
13 |
elections had already closed. |
14 |
|
15 |
I'm not about to demand a recount or anything, but I felt a little |
16 |
ripped off that I managed to overlook something so seemingly important. |

Perhaps in future elections, Wilikins can be rigged to send a /notice |
19 |
at least once to every #gentoo-* channel, both when elections open, and |
20 |
within a certian threshold of when they close? |
21 |
|
22 |
Or perhaps send a /privmesg 's to every developer both: |
23 |
|
24 |
1. When elections open ( or the first time the dev appears online in a |
25 |
gentoo channel after elections open ) |
26 |
2. Every 5 Hours of the last 24 hours of the election window. |
27 |
|
28 |
( The latter mostly being the most practical way I could think of to |
29 |
counteract timezone effects and client-cycles losing the notice ) |
30 |
|
31 |
Because I think ideally we aught to be encouraging participation in |
32 |
voting as much as practical. |
