Details
* The election URL:
https://vote.heliosvoting.org/helios/e/GRASS-GIS-PSC-2016 * Election
Fingerprint: es9DDU1oPIxtyV9DE/cl402ctbm5PwaFhmLrruzsAJU
Remember, the entire election process was/is encrypted. The CRO, being
the administrator of this "private" election, could only verify which of
the invited members did vote. That and nothing more.
*Ballots*
Helios' voting system features "Audited Ballots". More information at:
https://vote.heliosvoting.org/helios/elections/397c5ce0-67c2-11e6-8e87-3e719e3f8c36/audited-ballots/.
*Election tally*
Even more, anyone should be able to verify the election tally at "Helios
Election Verifier":
https://vote.heliosvoting.org/verifier/verify.html?election_url=/helios/elections/397c5ce0-67c2-11e6-8e87-3e719e3f8c36.
*Trustee*
The trustee for this election was:
Trustee #1: Helios Voting Administrator
Public Key Fingerprint: 0mYM9DB3TVWlbURGBXiMnCb12Vsf4OJoFXBODOPl9os
Trustees are responsible for decrypting the election result. Each
trustee generates a keypair and submits the public portion to Helios.
When it's time to decrypt, each trustee needs to provide their secret
key.
For this election, however, the automcatically selected, by the system,
trustee was selected and no other persons where involved in this
process.
*Broken Links?*
If any of the links do not lead anywhere, please contact the CRO
publicly, in example by responding to this post.
Voters who casted a ballot, will receive another message sent via
Helios' directly.
For more, there is a FAQ: https://vote.heliosvoting.org/faq
Final words
As a CRO, I tried to serve this role as best possible. Looking back on
the last few weeks, and having various off-list discussions, while at
Bonn last week, I identify and reflect on mistakes and things I could
have done better.
In time, I will try to collect some of the experiences and compose a
wiki-page (in trac). However, I'd like to stress the following: I feel
and think that I did not insist as much as I should, to assist in
profiling better the candidates.
There is this important question, asked by Micha Silver end of July (see
https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/grass-user/2016-July/074529.html),
"what we should expect from PSC members?"
Some of the candidates went a bit deeper in presenting themselves.
Others were less lengthy in their writing. All good.
However, I propose herewith, for the next PSC election, the following:
set as a
requirement, for each candidate, to answer this very question as being
asked from the community: "What should the community expect from your
PSC membership?".
Thank you.
GRASS-GIS' CRO
As Nikos, thank you to the previous PSC for accepting me as the CRO this
year.
