<p>Vicky, I went looking for an appropriate project to raise an
issue and couldn't find anything obvious.</p>
<p>My suggestions are not really bug worthy, as they are limited to
tweaking the process:<br>
</p>
<p>1. Ensure CRO acknowledges nominations so the nominator knows
their nomination has been received. (This was done.)<br>
</p>
<p>2. When notifying the community that it is time to vote, provide
a link to the list of people. This was done, but wasn't obvious to
some of us because:</p>
<p>3. Make sure that the style used in the voting tool makes links
looks like a link (typically blue underline), as in the prior
format it was confusing (at least to me). <br>

I did try the form, and later discovered that there was a link
to each <br>
members' profile. (It wasn't obvious to me at first glance as
the <br>
styling used didn't make it look like a link to me).<br>
<br>
I agree with Maria that this simpler process of not swamping
the email <br>
list was better, and there are only a few minor tweaks
required to make <br>
it more intuitive to voters.<br>
<br>
Cheers, Cameron<br>
