[FFmpeg-devel] [ANNOUNCE] upcoming vote: extra members for GA v2

[FFmpeg-devel] [ANNOUNCE] upcoming vote: extra members for GA v2

[Anton Khirnov]

Hi all,
as the previous thread got a bit too big and...lively, I'm starting a
new one, that will hopefully be smaller and calmer.

The vote will start on Monday 2023-11-20 and will run for a week (after
which we will continue with TC and CC elections). The voter list will be
the one in [1] minus Ting Fu, who is unreachable (45 people in total).

Since we are effectively doing $nb_candidates independent votes at once,
I am going to map that onto a single CIVS vote as follows. There will be
a special option in the candidate list, called NOT_CHOSEN. The only
thing that will matter in the results is every person's ranking with
respect to NOT_CHOSEN - those ranking above it will be added to GA.

The vote description will be as follows:
  Who of the following people should be added to GA and thus gain voting
  rights for 2 years?

  There is a special candidate in the list below called NOT_CHOSEN. Rank
  those people who you want added to GA above NOT_CHOSEN, and those who
  you do NOT want added to GA below NOT_CHOSEN. If you have no opinion
  on a candidate, rank them the same as NOT_CHOSEN.

  Those who rank strictly higher than NOT_CHOSEN in the final results
  will be added to GA.

The list of candidates I have so far is:
* Ronald Bultje
* Alexander Strasser
* Hendrik Leppkes
* Reimar Döffinger
* Baptiste Coudurier
(hope I haven't missed anyone, please tell me if I did)

If we get an agreement from any further people Michael has contacted
before the vote starts, I will also add them the list.

Of course anyone else is still welcome to suggest themselves as well,
but please do that ASAP so that I actually see it before the vote
starts.

I can confirm that, i have not received any additional yes replies either
at the moment

so from the 12 sent out emails
(this only included people active or in GA 2020 or paying infra)
we got 2 people saying yes ATM
from most we got no reply yet
maybe we should give people a little more time
to avoid having to do a 2nd vote round, if we get a late yes reply?

thx

I'd rather not postpone the vote much longer. I suppose we could start
it on Tuesday, but I see little point in waiting beyond that - how much
time does it take to write a simple 'yes'?

Waited for a day, as Michael requested, but there were no new
affirmative replies.

The vote has now started, with 45 authorized voters, and 6 people to be
voted on. If you are on the voter list and do not receive a voting link
soon, please let me know. If you do receive a voting link, please read
the instructions carefully and vote as soon as you can.

Cheers,
