ballot
Hi,
This is the ballot as it is currently.
Voting period starts 00:00:00 UTC on Thursday, November 18th, 2014
Votes must be received by 23:59:59 UTC on Wednesday, December 31th, 2014
The following ballot is for voting on limiting the term of the technical
committee members.
This vote is being conducted as required by the Debian Constitution.
You may see the constitution at http://www.debian.org/devel/constitution.
For voting questions or problems contact secretary@debian.org.
The details of the general resolution can be found at:
http://www.debian.org/vote/2014/vote_004
Both proposals aim at creating a regular turn-over of Technical
Committee members, by enforcing a term limit of about four years. The
proposals differ in the way they react to resignations or removals of TC
members for reasons other than term limit.
- 'Option 1' chooses to leave regular term limits unaffected by
resignation/removals, which could result in more than 2 TC members
leaving the TC during the same year, in such events.
- 'Option 2' chooses to subtract the number of resignations/removals
from the required number of expiries, which could result in some TC
members exceeding the term limit, in such events.
NOTE: this is a very short summary of each option. Voters are strongly
encouraged to read the full options at the URL above.
Both options modify the constitution and so require a 3:1 majority.
Also, note that you can get a fresh ballot any time before the end of
the vote by sending a signed mail to
ballot@vote.debian.org
with the subject "gr_ctteterm".
To vote you need to be a Debian Developer.
HOW TO VOTE
First, read the full text of the platform.
To cast a vote, it is necessary to send this ballot filled out to a
dedicated e-mail address, in a signed message, as described below.
The dedicated email address this ballot should be sent to is:
gr_ctteterm@vote.debian.org
The form you need to fill out is contained at the bottom of this
message, marked with two lines containing the characters
'-=-=-=-=-=-'. Do not erase anything between those lines, and do not
change the choice names.
There are 3 choices in the form, which you may rank with numbers between
1 and 3. In the brackets next to your preferred choice, place a 1.
Place a 2 in the brackets next to your next choice. Continue until you
reach your last choice. Do not enter a number smaller than 1 or larger
than 3.
You may skip numbers, leave some choices unranked, and rank options
equally. Unranked choices are considered equally the least desired
choices, and ranked below all ranked choices.
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. (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).
Finally, mail the filled out ballot to: gr_ctteterm@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) with your key that is
in the Debian keyring. You may, if you wish, choose to send a signed,
encrypted ballot: use the vote key appended below for encryption.
The voting software (Devotee) accepts mail that either contains only an
unmangled OpenPGP message (RFC 2440 compliant), or a PGP/MIME mail
(RFC 3156 compliant). To avoid problems I suggest you use PGP/MIME.
