Hi Göran,
Can you add Dans name to the list of questions? Maybe Monday would be a good day to encourage candidates to answer questions.
We should set up a test election; we need the wording of emails that goes out.
This is what we had last year:
Squeak Foundation Board Elections 2007
The 7 highest rated candidates from the list will comprise the Squeak Foundation Board starting from the end of voting, and for a year. Remember that your vote is considered as a ranking of all candidates. The virtual candidate "None Of The Above" should only be ranked over candidates that you would prefer not to see in the Board at all. Some of the candidates have posted information about themselves and their candidacy on the squeak-dev list or other places. The official 2007 elections site includes some information, and is at: http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/5920 (note in case of a tie: final Results will follow The Condorcet completion rule: CIVS Ranked Pairs)
What do you think, should we change anything besides the link and the date?
Ron

No, I think that would do fine. Possibly adjust the "some of the candidates" depending on what they will do. :)
Do we know how to "set up a test election"? Who should I talk to? Ken? You? Daniel?
I also took a peek at the list of Apprentices (great Ken!) and we should go through that and try to warn people etc without valid emails. I can do that stuff.
