Hello cats and kittens.
Just wanted to report that the voting seems to be going well. I currently have about 85 votes.
I think, the same way you get a receipt stub when you really vote, I'm going to send "vote received" messages to everyone I've heard from. I can't do that now, but I want to make sure there are no lost ballots. I'll post a message when I'm getting underway with the receipts, and when I'm done, so you can know to worry ;) if you haven't heard from me.
P.S. It might be a good idea to build a receipt function into whatever voting mechanism we eventually build.
Peace.

If you vote using the form, you get a copy of the ballot automatically cc'ed to you. Is that enough of a receipt, do you think, or do we need something more than that?
Oh, I wanted to ask about this. When I voted the email came to me showing my votes. Was that a duplicate or a mistake?
LOL - someone else in my brain today. Making me an x-poster left and right.
From the voting page:
Your ballot will be automatically sent to votes@buffistas.org. In addition, a copy of your ballot will be sent to the following e-mail address:

Sorry. I checked my email before I actually voted!
Thanks guys!

What?
Nevermind. I missed that bit in jengod's post.
85 - Woo Hoo, sounds like we will have a quorum.
What's weird and creepy is that that's like, 10% of our registered users. I mean, sure, lots of the other 90% are probably people who registered, and then didn't come back much, and some are people who just haven't had a chance to vote yet, but...wow.
