[Council] The 1st Maemo Developer Regatta - The Finishing Line!
 

The voting starts tomorrow!

The election machine has been set in motion and the voting tokens are being mailed out now.
However, you should not be alarmed if you do not get your token today, mailing the whole batch takes about 2 days.

We had to make some last-minute changes in the system as it turned out that there were no contestants left in the "Beginners" category when we reviewed the entries.
We are running now with only 2 categories, "something new" and "Fixing/updating".

You will be receiving 2 voting emails, one per category.

As it happens, batch-sending the voting tokens was quicker than I expected and all mails have already been sent now!

So, if you have NOT received your voting email yet, please contact me and I'll set it straight.

Also, be sure to check your spam folder. With my address (forwarding to gmail) it somehow ended up in there. Happy voting!

Are the emails sent to everyone with a login on this site, or is it a separate login? I haven't received an email yet, but then I've never voted in any of the Maemo community council elections or anything like that before.

The voting is open for all "Maemo Community Passive Members" who have enough karma; this translates to people who have maemo.org login and have posted now and then to TMO or gained karma via other means[*]

Note that TMO membership is not same as maemo.org membership, you need to have both logins and also need to link your accounts to gain best karma.
(Life is complicated, bro :))

[*] Karma is gained from TMO posts, TMO thanks, Wiki Updates, Package testing, Package uploading, Blog postings, (not sure about IRC postings) ... various community related events

Very complicated... the register button on https://maemo.org doesn't do anything, is it disabled because of spam or something?

Re: [Council] The 1st Maemo Developer Regatta - The Finishing Line!
 

Oho, I did not notice that until I now tried it.
It has worked before, so there is some problem ongoing.
I'll alert techstaff to look into it.

---------- edit ----------

The problem is only on the https://maemo.org/ page. The http://maemo.org/ seems to work OK.
