I'd like it to be complete and the results known by Feb 17 so that the
existing folks can honour their pledge to stand down.  However, that's
going to be a bit quick I fear.

I'm not going to be able to put any effort into this; what little coding
time I have is dedicated to rewriting a Squeak version of the SqP
reputation algorithm.

OK.

Yes.

I think that's a *much* lower priority than posting to squeak-dev saying
how the elections are going to work - notably, how to stand as a
candidate and how to register as a voter - and then keeping up the
publicity so that people decide whether to stand and register.  However,
I agree that it is a task that needs doing.
