Hi,
I attached the wrong ballot the last time around. Sorry for
the error; I must automate this sending of the CFV.

Voting period starts 00:00:01 UTC on Sunday, 8th October 2006

The following ballot is for voting on a General Resolution for a
position statement on handling source-less firmware in the Linux
kernel. The vote is being conducted in accordance with the policy
delineated in Section A, Standard Resolution Procedure, of the Debian
Constitution.
The details of the general resolution can be found at:
http://www.debian.org/vote/2006/vote_007
You may see the constitution at http://www.debian.org/devel/constitution.
For voting questions contact secretary@debian.org.
HOW TO VOTE
First, read the full text of the GR and amendments, if any. The ballot
does not claim to be complete rendition of the proposal(s), or even
accurately depict the spirit of each proposal.
Do not erase anything between the lines below and do not change the
choice names.
In the brackets next to your preferred choice, place a 1. Place a 2 in
the brackets next to your next choice. Do not enter a number smaller
than 1 or larger than 3. You may skip numbers. You may rank options
equally (as long as all choices X you make fall in the range 1<= X <=
3).
Make sure you have read the proposal in detail.
To vote "no, no matter what" rank "Further discussion" as more
desirable than the unacceptable choices, or You may rank the "Further
discussion" choice, and leave choices you consider unacceptable
blank. Unranked choices are considered equally the least desired
choices, and ranked below all ranked choices. (Note: if the Further
Discussion choice is unranked, then it is equal to all other unranked
choices, if any -- no special consideration is given to the Further
discussion choice by the voting software).
Then mail the ballot to: gr_firmware@vote.debian.org. Don't worry
about spacing of the columns or any quote characters (">") that your
reply inserts. NOTE: The vote must be GPG signed (or PGP signed) (or
encrypted) with your key that is in the Debian keyring.
