[OSGeo-Discuss] Board elections Voting

[Dimitris Kotzinos]

Hi all,

I do agree with Arnulf on this: changing the rules in the middle of an 
election and not considering thoroughly the implications of the change 
is probably problematic.
I think we need first to search a bit deeper on what exactly this means, 
e.g. do we prefer someone on the board that is voted by 8 people or 
someone strongly supported by one person with 8 votes? Of course this is 
an extreme case scenario but demonstrates in my view that at least some 
more consideration is needed ...
(on the other hand, this does not imply in any way that the proposal is 
somewhat wrong or something like that - it is more a matter of 
preference of the community).

Best regards,

Dimitris

P.S.: I think that it is probably time to remove the FOSS4G 2012 banner 
from the home page of OSGeo and maybe substitute it with the 2013 event?
