[OSGeo-Conf] Voting officer needed for FOSS4G 2018 selection

[Cameron Shorter]

Hi Thomas,

I suspect that Lime Survey provides the ability to guarantee the that 
the voting process hasn't been tampered with - ensuring that we can see 
who has voted, the results of the vote, but not how each person voted. 
(Jorge, can you please confirm this is the case).

Such a voting system is preferable to having a person acting as a CRO, 
where the integrity of the CRO might be questioned. (Thomas, this is 
more of a protection of the CRO, rather than a question of the CRO's 
integrity).

Warm regards, Cameron
