Re: [atlarge-discuss] WE WANT ELECTIONS NOT a COUP



My suggestion would be somewhat informal but would probably be respectable
and trustworthy.

I suggest we appoint 3 trusted members to act as election overseers.

I suggest the ballot (following nomination and statements period) is sent
out to all members.

I suggest the members are instructed to 'Reply All' and that the votes are
thereby sent to all 3 trusted members.

I suggest the 3 trusted overseers count up all the votes and check together
to see that they agree on the results.

I suggest the 3 trusted members publish the results.

Admittedly, this process may not be attractive once we grow bigger, but for
our present stage of development it would work, and that's what we need. To
SIMPLY get the thing done.

Is there agreement on electing a new 11-member panel?
If yes, I think we should find some generally trusted persons to run
them (perhaps have them voted by the membership?). I will promptly
hand the membership list to them.
And also, AFAIK we have no voting system other than Joop's polling
booth (I stopped developing mine after Joop ran the poll on its own).
If we want something different, we'll have to find something else (or
you'll have to wait for me to finish it).
