As I hope everyone on this list knows, we are in the middle of the Maemo Community Council elections. People who have had maemo.org accounts for over 3 months and have a karma of 10 or over can vote. If you qualify, you should have received a ballot. If you think you qualify, and didn't receive a ballot, there might be something wrong with your email address and you should Dave Neary [dneary@xxxxxxxxx]. Voting will run from March 23rd until March 30th 2010, 23:59 UTC As an experienced political organizer and blogger, I've written up my review of the different candidates in a summary The Maemo Community Council Elections http://www.orient-lodge.com/node/4020 It gathers information from the web about the candidates and I add in my own reflections based on my interactions with candidates online and via email, based on my own thoughts about what the council should be concerned with. I realize that not everyone agrees with all my thoughts. One candidate, has posted a very well written and thoughtful response, which I applaud him for. He is perhaps the person I disagree with most on some issues I consider very important, but he is also one of the people I respect the most for arguing well for his positions. I've posted a reply to his comment as well. I would encourage members of the larger Maemo community to become more involved. Read my post. Share comments. If you are qualified to vote, please do so. If not, please become more involved with the community so that you can vote in the next election. My two cents....
