[GRASS-PSC] Voter question

[Vaclav Petras]

I'm also happy with the elections and grateful to all who made it happen,
especially Hernán, but Vero, those who nominated, the candidates, and
voters too. However, I do have things I would like to be different next
time, so I'm happy to keep discussing. As far as the eligible voters:

Importantly, the contributions are not from all history. Vero please
correct me if I'm wrong, but they are only since the last PSC election. Or
the last two? I remember the discussion about that, but not the exact
result. Anyway, this is trying to exclude the inactive contributors, but it
does include the one-time contributors which is to include the non-frequent
contributors.

I think there might be different expectations on what is private besides
who you voted for. However, CRO has the information already and doing
aggregate statistics or statements to share publicly or privately with PSC
is within expected parameters I would say.
