Hi Vasile, all,

To be honest, we really need to get moving on the elections (I tried 
kicking this election off back in May, insert polite yell here).

So how to get moving.

Here was the original timeline that I proposed:

   2015-06-22 to 2015-07-12: Nominate new Charter Members (3 weeks)
   2015-07-13 to 2015-07-19: Vote for new Charter Members (1 week)
   2015-07-20 to 2015-08-02: Nominate new Board Members (2 weeks)
   2015-08-03 to 2015-08-16: Vote for new Board Members -  (2 weeks)

Here is a new proposal:

   2015-07-27 to 2015-08-03: Poll Charter Members about voting process 
(1 week)
   2015-08-04 to 2015-08-17: Nominate new Charter Members (2 weeks)
   2015-08-18 to 2015-08-24: Vote for new Charter Members (1 week)
   2015-08-25 to 2015-09-07: Nominate new Board Members (2 weeks)
   2015-09-08 to 2015-09-14: Vote for new Board Members -  (1 week)

It's a tight timeline (right up to FOSS4G-Seoul), but, we've done tight 
timelines for previous elections.

If anyone has problems with this timeline, please do propose a better 
timeline.

Thanks,

-jeff
