Martin, the next step is to review the election procedure (it's in the board-docs/resolutions directory -- probably should be placed somewhere more visible/official). There is a template for a schedule, please use this to propose our election schedule.
Would you also like to write a kickoff announcement (there's a generic message template in the election_procedure.txt file)?
An Election Proctor will also need to be elected by the board. I'll accept nominations at this time, and arrange a vote within about week. The proctor doesn't have to be a board member, although I think we've generally had a board member do it in the past. I seem to recall last time we had the proctor establish a small election committee, although we had several board seats open that time and the voting software was new, so maybe this time one person would be enough especially if they've done it in the past. (Do I recall correctly that Ted was the proctor last time?)
Yes, I was and I did have a small committee. The difficulty is that both the proctor and the committee need to be folks not running in the election. So practically speaking it is likely we need to have the proctor be a member of the board.
