Please post nominations in response to this message at LUGNET. Nominations will
be only be recognized if they are in response to that message. If for some reasons you're not able to post to LUGNET please ask the webmasters to proxy your nominations.
Per ss.6.03(a), you must specify the name of the person you are nominating,
along with your name. Another member of the community must second the
nomination in a reply, and the nominee must publicly accept the nomination
in the same channel (direct reply to the nomination or second) in order to
be valid. If the nominee does not accept, it will be assumed that he or she
has declined, and they will not be placed on the ballot.
Nominations will close at 11:59 PM GMT on 29 February 2008. This means that
to be listed on the ballot, a candidate must have been nominated, seconded
and must have formally stated acceptance by that time.
The Steering Committee will give sufficient notice of the election and election procedures per ss.6.03(b).
NOTE: subsection 6.03(b) states that elections should take place before
March 1. We interpret this to mean that we will commence the election on
March 1, but since it is electronic, it will run for 2 weeks, just as last
time. The exact time and date of start and end will be announced sometime
very close to (but after) 0000 GMT March 1.
Again, thanks to all of you for your commitment to the goals of the organization,
and in working with us this year. Please, stay involved with LDraw.org and
keep it moving forward!
