So, once again I've missed an election, :-/ and I've done some searching to find out why. Has there been an announcement and where? I've started searching in the test-announce archives: | http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/test-announce/2012-November/date.html | | [Test-Announce] Fedora Board, FAmSCo, FESCo Election Season, and Fedora Board Appointment. Robyn Bergeron | | [Test-Announce] Fedora 19 release name voting Robyn Bergeron The "Fedora 19 release name voting" announcement is short and to the point. It immediately starts with the important part that "Voting ... has begun", then the details and direct links to the Fedora Elections System. This announcement has not gone unnoticed. I've taken part in that election. On the contrary, the announcement from Nov 7 starts with referring to a "nomination period", _no_ concrete dates, _no_ links to the election system, and a lot of text in an attempt to squeeze everything into a single mail. Is that the announcement I've missed or which I should have read more carefully? Same on devel-announce list: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel-announce/2012-November/date.html Could this be fixed for future elections? The "Fedora 19 release name voting" message is fine, in particular its subject is concise. The other one is a confusing mess.
