Kodi Foundation | Elections | 2018 |
Pre-election
Kib served as the election administrator, as his seat was not up for re-election.
Nomination notice
The following notice was posted on the Team Kodi private forum, and linked to in an e-mail to all Kodi Foundation members, to give due notice about the election and solicit nominations for the same. The Foundation bylaws state that at least ten days must be given for a notice about member decisions such as an election, this length of time being coterminous with the nomination period.
Hi everybody, it's October, which means it's time for elections again. Board member seats up for election this year are: Martijn, Montellese and Natethomas.
Seats not up for election are Fritsch and Keith (me). The rules are pretty simple:
Please make sure to keep your nominations simple and clear. For example:
In case you're nominated, please reply with…
I'll update the second post in this thread with a list of members and the nomination status on a regular basis, so you don't have to crawl through all posts/pages to check. The nomination period is five (5) days, ending on October 17th, 2018 and actual voting will begin on October 18th, lasting until October 26th. |
Voting
Voting started on August 29, 2018 and ended on September 30, 2018 using the Condorcet Internet Voting Service with a ranking scale.
Individual e-mail addresses from Foundation members were entered into the CIVS ballot and mailed each Foundation member with a unique voting key url. This also served as the notice for the start of the voting period.
A second notice was sent outside of the CIVS system in order to reduce the chance of someone accidentally not receiving a voting notice. Voting notices can be sent out again, but voting keys are generated based on e-mail addresses and thus prevent double voting.
The following description was used for the ballot:
You're voting for 3 candidates to join the XBMC Foundation board alongside Martijn and Kib, whose appointments last for another twelve (12) months.
Each of the people below have been nominated and have accepted their nomination. The 3 candidates that receive the highest support will join the board for a period of two (2) years. Good luck to the candidates. |
