Questions to Candidates - New process
Candidates' answers and manifestos
The official set of questions
This year (based on discussions on
osmf-talk
and within the board) we thought it would be a good idea to have a structured question gathering process.
We invited members to post their questions to
Talk:Foundation/AGM18/Election to Board
, up to 2018-11-17
(see the bottom of this page for other key dates)
When nominations closed
Michael Collinson
acted as a facilitator, gathering the questions, organising them and publishing an official set for the candidates.
Candidates then submitted their answers and manifestos directly to him and cc our administrative assistant
(mike@ayeltd.biz, cc dorothea@osmfoundation.org).
It was up to the candidates to answer all the questions or just a few of them, but our suggestion was to answer all of them.
When all candidates submitted their answers via email, all answers/manifestos were published at once.
Discussion then commenced, baring in mind that 2018-12-08 16:00 UTC was when voting opened.
"We expect this to be the official election campaign process. We won't restrict members to continue to talk on our members' mailing list nor will we restrict candidates to continue discussions, but we don't encourage them to do so. The official answers and questions thereof should be what voters use to judge."
Voting
Only fully paid up members will be able to vote, and only those who have already become members 30 days prior to the AGM date.
Voting will be organised in a similar way to last year. Voting members will receive an email from the on-line voting service with links to the on-line ballot for each ballot measure. The election will be carried out under single transferable vote rules (STV). Each foundation member will cast their vote by ranking candidates according to their preference. A maximum of two will be elected.
See
voting information and instructions
for details.
Detailed results
A detailed run-down of how the transferable votes were transferred, is given on
the OSMF website
Anonymised ballots can be downloaded from
