and I screwed up. I apologize to everybody for the awful mistake I made.

I forgot to include one candidate William L. Franklin  in the ballot for
the PPB.

Unfortunately I have no way to correct the mistake than to stop the poll
and create a new one. This means that the 80 people that already voted
will have to vote again. Also this means that the ~120 people that
didn't vote will get a new message in their inbox.

For the future, I have noticed all the inefficiencies and places where
mistakes can happen and I'll make a former proposal to the new PPB on
how to streamline it. Hopefully nobody will ever be put in the position
to forget a candidate from the ballot.

Please accept my apology again, voters and William.

Now that you make me notice it, they all have described themselves but
none of them seem to have provided their affiliation. Not sure what to
make of that... Is that a relevant piece of information? If it is,
candidates please add your affiliation to your wiki pages.

now officially closed and voting can start: all entitled to vote will
receive a personal message via email on February 28 and have time until
March 3 11:59 PST to vote. The email message will go to the email
address included in the Authors file and the one provided during the
registration for PPB votes.

The official list of nominees (in random order) is the following:

Voting process

Like previous OpenStack Governance Elections, we will use the Condorcet
Internet Voting Service from Cornell University,
http://www.cs.cornell.edu/andru/civs.html.  This tool uses the Condorcet
method of voting which invokes ranking the  nominees instead of just
selecting one choice. More information on this  methodology is at
http://www.cs.cornell.edu/w8/~andru/civs/rp.html. All registered voters
will receive an email with a unique link allowing them to privately
vote.

Please note that the voting system is run using private polls with
restricted access to ensure voter authenticity; however all results will
be made public once the election ends. Voter anonymity is guaranteed.
The result’s ranking will be evaluated using Schulze (also known as
Beatpath or CSSD) completion rule. If an individual should happen to be
elected as both a PTL and General  Member of the PPB, then they will
take their PTL seat only and the  elected General Member seat will go to
the next highest vote getter in  the most recent election.  Thanks for
participating in this essential process.

The election committee is made of Stefano Maffulli, Lloyd Dewolf and
Dave Nielsen.
