Question: Why do you [not] candidate?

[Giacomo A. Catenazzi]

Hello,

The question seems very simple: Why do you [not] candidate?,
but I'm looking more about:
- Why only two candidates ?
- Is it good for campaign and discussions?
- Why so low interest for DPL?

ciao
cate

Re: Amendment: automatic expiry-on-failure, to Proposal: Enhance requirements for General resolutions

 Although I understand where this is coming from, I have fairly strong 
 reservations about coding something like this in the constitution. For 
 one thing at some point we'd need yet another GR to revert the text to 
 its old form if the experiment were to fail.

I don't understand: the motivation for my amendments is to avoid
having yet another GR if the experiment were to fail... because if
the experiment fails, that means we don't have a viable GR process,
which means we're stuck and are responsible for running the project
aground.  I've been there, done that and want to avoid it here.

If the experiment succeeds (GR-2Q or whatever works fine), then it
needs another GR to make the increased seconding more permanent, but
that's as trivial as a GR can be.  The argument will be over and it'll
be a simple evidence-based decision IMO.

Hope that explains,

  Seconded.
 
 What exactly are you seconding?  This is a proposal that modifies
 *3* of the other proposals.

Eh, not the way I read that. But, well, this amendment as applied to the
original proposal by Jorg.

DPL 2009 election draft

[Kurt Roeckx]

Hi,

This is a draft for the 2009 DPL election ballot.

==
 Voting period starts  00:00:00 UTC on Sunday,   March 29th, 2009
 Votes must be received by 23:59:59 UTC on Saturday, April 11th, 2009

This vote is being conducted as required by the Debian Constitution.
You may see the constitution at http://www.debian.org/devel/constitution.
For voting questions contact secret...@debian.org.

The details of the candidate platforms can be found at:
http://www.debian.org/vote/2009/platforms/

HOW TO VOTE

First, read the full text of the platforms and rebuttals.

Do not erase anything between the lines below and do not change the
choice names.

In the brackets next to your preferred choice, place a 1. Place a 2 in
the brackets next to your next choice. Continue till you reach your
last choice. Do not enter a number smaller than 1 or larger than 3.
You may skip numbers.  You may rank options equally (as long as all
choices X you make fall in the range 1 = X = 3).

Please read the platforms in detail.

To vote no, no matter what rank None Of The Above as more
desirable than the unacceptable choices, or you may rank the None Of
The Above choice, and leave choices you consider unacceptable
blank. Unranked choices are considered equally the least desired
choices, and ranked below all ranked choices. (Note: if the None Of
The Above choice is unranked, then it is equal to all other unranked
choices, if any -- no special consideration is given to the None Of
The Above choice by the voting software).

Then mail the ballot to: leader2...@vote.debian.org.
Don't worry about spacing of the columns or any quote characters ()
that your reply inserts. NOTE: The vote must be GPG signed (or PGP
signed) with your key that is in the Debian keyring.  You may, if you
wish, choose to send a signed, encrypted ballot. Devotee accepts mail
that either contains only an unmangled OpenPGP message (RFC 2440
compliant), or a PGP/MIME mail (RFC 3156 compliant).
