[maemo-community] [Council] Voting system progress?

[From: Andrew Flegg]

Hi,

With only a couple of months left in our (first?) term, I was
wondering where we'd got on updating the voting system for the next
election?

Some kind of range voting seemed to get a lot of traction on ITT from
some election experts; but was dependent on being written up in a way
which makes sense in plain English.

Time is a factor, as any changes to the voting procedure (and hence
the Council's constitution) needs to be ratified by a referendum (last
point under http://wiki.maemo.org/Task:Community_Council#Elections).
In fact, that says a month of debate on the concrete options; one of
which should be the preferred new approach, one should be "No change"
and one should be "None of these are satisfactory". Should there be
others if there are sub-varieties of the preferred new approach?

Cheers,

Andrew
