If the board is five members and there are only 5 candidates, I see no point in voting...

Only two positions are to be filled via the current election. The entire board is not elected or re-elected at one time.

But this is not said in the voting page!

It isn't?

https://connect.opensuse.org/pg/polls/read/pluskalm/52970/opensuse- board-election-20162017 says "Two seats are contested in this election, meaning each openSUSE member has two votes to cast."

No, it doesn't. I was told to go to:

https://connect.opensuse.org/pg/polls/read/pluskalm/52970/opensuse-bo ard-election-20162017

where it says (loaded yesterday night):

«Welcome to the election of the 2017 openSUSE board.  The board consists of one appointed chairperson and 5 elected members who may serve up to 2 consecutive terms on the board.

To clarify - Each openSUSE member has TWO VOTES they can use for this election

Note that no single organization or company can control more than 40 percent of the electable board seats (more than 2 seats). Please read the full description of the election process.»

Notice that the words "two seats" is not there. I reload the page and now it says:

«Welcome to the election of the 2017 openSUSE board.  The board consists of one appointed chairperson and 5 elected members who may serve up to 2 consecutive terms on the board. Two seats are contested in this election, meaning each openSUSE member has two votes to cast.

So someone has changed the page today. Thankyou for that, but that person could have replied to my post saying that and thus stop the discussion. Hello

Nobody changed the poll description since it was created, it has stated two members since its creation, reelection two members of board was also clearly explained at [1] Cheers Martin Pluskal 1. https://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-announce/2016-12/msg00000.html -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCAAdFiEEwQnJ+Ps8HqIKhK3yWyRdZ/3eaFcFAliHYUIACgkQWyRdZ/3e aFc2QQ/8CnyL5f/V2GLfn2mWR/x200zkf+hzlHtHPrKeigTuBUQGe3sIEFz+pDzH 2ucZbhFjxhjAVzIKeCt0tW+l7Q64yJbb1ysWwoiz/t61FBVFJZr+t1+yRf/rt6Av CaBBn7x5Q1ccDJ4f+m2/DLsRIlc7R3aLaez7j+OsLw47PNTJ7Uly6/vzA4QkUr/S bVbBokPlKHz+6naSJ2MAUb5fCJgIRFwXe13QzFcuVNwXlG4OPXOu6iE7g4py0GkE X9sIMRl7lfIVYNIMbQ+EXw6Ne2KNPapzgXFs9fY6dFL1pZ4ZhU+jQTzf9YevUPVL vrIKh2i2RJBfvteBeWFC3SL12OfZ7TWeJLuHbxtXrLKJBTnzMLEjK8musaaByUIT b24KbS5F3KzxpBBhuQjV3EFbaLaU2AQyOBnMCW795Xe455m3Ngb5uWdMFr9+C8W5 5ejNOsB/iyeW1q5V4XpJR6ZeTwULcy9Nt/SpWaXoN7nvHBzgK6zdpkykXlZxJMm7 bJd5afHwh+EGR7pC1v924Tl4fKfFwrNwv1r6PAKDx6TvTjDCvrigDSPxmOo/rA/V Rle55FzT3261zPd0qI5ReGZ2H1zjtbI2OFMq5a1Xp3y/zXHYi2HH+lqRYXjLMQhD DJMj2p8MB47BZpDPqLHF2bvoorS0gMVYHVzJqHTf5IM960giDLw= =dR6c -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
