I don't have the text but I've asked the coding competition to
directly forward it to you.

any stats from t.m.o. other than the minimum number of months the accounts
must have existed.  The Council's decision was to proceed with the vote as
soon as possible using a karma level (no higher than 100) and minimum
account age (measured in months) that will not overload the servers.  These
two criteria are the only base of filtering.  If a karma filter of 10 would
overload the servers, then use any higher karma number up to 100.  We leave
it to your expertise to determine what will overload the servers and to
proceed as soon as possible.
