[opensuse-project] Question for Upcoming Board elections
Hi I have a question, if someone wants to stand for the elections, can he or she specifially apply for a one year or a two year team as there are 2 seats on one year term. -- Regards Manu Gupta -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org

Ultimately the Election Committee has to answer the question. My interpretation is that the answer to your question is "No" The decision about who gets 1 or 2 year terms is based on the number of votes each candidate receives. In this election the 2 highest vote getters will receive the 2 seats with the 2 year terms and the next 2 vote getters will get the 1 year term seats. That is my interpretation of the rule and not "official" the Election-Committee has the final ruling on the interpretation of the Election rules.

Robert, Base on past election and the rules I have seen, that sounds about right, but like you send the EC need to make the finial call. On Wed, Nov 6, 2013 at 1:55 PM, Robert Schweikert <rjschwei@suse.com> wrote:

Hi, the election committee is of the same opinion. The 2 highest voted positions get the 2 year term, the 2 others the 1 year terms.
