OSGeo Board,<br>
I propose the Board Election Procedure be changed to the following,
at:<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Board_Election_Procedure_2014">http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Board_Election_Procedure_2014</a><br>
<br>
The non-trivial change I've made is to add a tie-breaker process:<br>
<i>In case of a tied vote for board member positions, the CRO's vote
will count as 1.5 times a normal vote, in order to resolve the tie
break.</i><br>
<br>
+1 for the change, Cameron<br>
<br>
If the board agrees to this change, I'll move the text across to: <br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Board_Election_Procedure">http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Board_Election_Procedure</a><br>
<br>
Jorge, can you please unlock this page so I can edit it too.<br>
