oh, yes. all members?
Well, there's the problem: We need election officials for running elections. But who should be the election officials for the election of election officials? And how do we vote in the election for the election officials without having election officials setting up the election officials election voting system?
All in all I would not want to see such an spree of votings and elections if there is no actual incident forcing us to so.
I was gonna suggest membership officials as a body that could appoint election officials, but I think then we would need the members to vote for membership officials, which is kinda dangerous considering membership is granted by them, so they could technically only accept membership requests from people that favoured them, not good ;)
Having the membership officials doing that to me seems less appropriate considering that they are also appointed by the board. It's an unecessary redundancy in my opinion. However beacause the board is already elected through a vote of the membership, I think we can accept and trust this "elected" body to appoint the next Election Committee. I don't see particular reasons to change this :). -- Maurizio Galli (m4u9) Xfce Team https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Xfce
