Devotee Improvements (Re: Debian Project Leader Election 2009 Results)
Would it be possible to add a pointer to the frequently encountered problems to the devotee error reply? This would most likely reduce the burden on the secretary during the voting period and allow people to solve the problems at their end faster. -- * Sufficiently advanced magic is indistinguishable from technology (T.P) * * PGP public key available @ http://www.iki.fi/killer * -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-vote-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

No. He got a mail saying there was a problem with his ballot. Had he contacted the secretary during the voting period something could have been done about this - at worst counting his vote manually.

I think he understands what the problem is. And the ballot stated what the mail needs to comply with. I will atleast make sure that the warning about the permissions will go away the next vote.

Hi Kurt, Il giorno 13/apr/09, alle ore 01:43, Kurt Roeckx ha scritto: I wish you contacted me about this before so that we could find a solution to get your vote counted. Thanks for your report. I did not contact you before, since I oversaw the warning in the first vote report and dismissed it as a temporary issue in the voting software. I really don't mind my vote not being counted this time, it will not affect my future votes. :-) I was only trying to figure out if it was a common problem for this vote, and thus other votes where rejected, or was just my fault. I will atleast contact devotee's author to see if we can atleast fix this for future votes. He will probably want to see a signed message by your mail program. Since this is a secret vote, I think it's best to just send a new signed message. If Manoj wants to look at my ballot you can forward my message to him. There is nothing secret in my choice for 2009 DPL.

Devotee is actually a nice way to verify your MUA's compliance when sending non-ASCII PGP mails. I found out a bug in my Gnus configuration that way (with Manoj's help). -- * Sufficiently advanced magic is indistinguishable from technology (T.P) * * PGP public key available @ http://www.iki.fi/killer * -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-vote-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
