New page

Until 2013 elections were a completely manual process. For the 2014 elections we intend to introduce an Electronic Voting process to automize some of the tasks involved. The effort will be lead by [[Bart van den Eijnden]].

== Requirements ==
* Nomination data is maintained on a server
* Candidates from the nomination list are automatically transfered / copied / referenced by the elections form
* Charter Members maintain their own data (email address, postal address, land of birth and/or residence (this needs to be clarified))
* Charter Members vote by logging into the system and filling out an electronic form.
* Charter members receive a notification of their vote by mail (content stripped / clarify)
* The CRO oversees the process
* Individual election results are not public

== Implementation ==
The technology used for the elections is ... options:
* implemented and maintained by OSGeo
** what technology?
** who maintains it?
** Is the data private / do we need privacy statement and all Charter Members to sign it (is ticking a checkbox when loggin in sufficient)?
* a generic elections software
** installation, maintenace
** Does OSGeo have to change the elections process to fit with the software req'

== Time Plan ==
This is just a proposal so we have something to aim for:
* 2014.01.01 Decide on which software to use
* Modify election proces accordingly
** Requires board approval
* 2014.03.01 Implement the system
* 2014.04.01 Enter Charter Member data
** notify Charter Members to doublecheck and update
* 2014.05.01 Test run, modify, fix
* 2014.06.01 Board approval of the policy, system and implementation
* 2014.07.01 Elections 2014

== Members ==
* [[Bart van den Eijnden]] (Lead)
* [[Michael Gerlek]] (past CRO, OSGeo Secretary)
* [[Arnulf Christl]] (past CRO)
