Congratulations to the new board members. Bryen, I'm curious what the vote totals were. Not so much which candidate got what, but how the votes were spread out. ie. Total votes: nnn cast Candidate #1: x votes #2: y votes etc. I'm mostly curious if the 2 winners percentages are well below a majority vote (whatever that means in a 2-vote election). fyi: I have no desire to change the rules for this election, but if the winners didn't have a majority I may propose something for the one a year from now. Thanks Greg On Mon, Dec 17, 2012 at 8:59 AM, Bryen M Yunashko <suserocks@bryen.com> wrote:
As of 23:00 UTC on 16 December, 2012, the openSUSE Project’s members completed the Fifth election of the openSUSE Board. At stake were two seats of the five electable seats. With 8 candidates, the community definitely had a broad choice of qualified candidates to choose from.
In the end, the two top vote-getters were Raymond Wooninck (tittiacoke) and Robert Schweikert, (robjo) respectively. They will join the openSUSE Board on January 9th during the transitional meeting of the regularly scheduled Project meeting heldon the Freenode IRC Channel at 17:00 UTC.
The Election Officials would like to congratulate all of thecandidates for a great campaign season. These candidates included Matt Barringer, Richard Brown, Carl Fletcher, Manu Gupta, Chuck Payne and Stefan Seyfried. All of these candidates demonstrated a commitment to the Project and exemplified the Guiding Principles which the Project, as a whole, is founded upon.
We join the rest of the community in looking forward to an exciting year to come as the new Board embarks on new initiatives and directions. And we thank the community for giving us the opportunity to serve as members of the election committee.
Sincerely, The openSUSE Election Committee
