1st vote                                     September 1st, 2015

Hi everyone,

this is the formal call for votes (CfV) for the voting rules
document. The voting period is now open!

For your information again, this is the voting rules document draft we
want to accept or reject:

  http://team.secretchronicles.de/~quintus/votingrules/votingrules-2015-08-15.pdf

Proponent
°°°°°°°°°

The voting was proposed by me, Quintus <…s@q…>.

Vote subject
°°°°°°°°°°°°

This vote is aimed at the ratification of the voting rules document
itself.

Vote options
°°°°°°°°°°°°

These are the possible voting options:

Option 1: Accept the voting rules document
Option 2: Reject the voting rules document

Voting period
°°°°°°°°°°°°°

The voting period is now open, and lasts until 2015-09-30 23:59
UTC.

Procedure
°°°°°°°°°

As nobody (thankfully) requested a covert vote, this vote will be held
as an open vote. Please vote by sending an email indicating the option
you voted for to the mailinglist or make an according post to the forum
topic corresponding to this message. Everybody has only one vote. If you
have a GPG keypair, please use it to sign the message (this is optional,
but recommended).

As per §1 of the voting rules, these are the people who are allowed to
vote:

* brianvanderburg2
* DarkAceZ
* datahead8888
* Luiji
* Quintus
* sauer2
* sydneyjd
* xet7

Note this is a special vote as it has a specific majority requirement as
per §21 of the voting rules document: At least two thirds of the team
members must choose the acceptance option, otherwise the vote is
failed. Conversely, if more than one third votes for the rejection
option, the vote is also failed. In any case, we’ll have to revise the
document then. If not enough people participate, we may vote on the same
document without changes again.

- From the above list you can surmise that eight people are allowed to
vote, which means that 5 ⅓ people have to be in favour of the voting
document. Since a third of a person is a little problematic, but 5
persons are not the required majority, at least 6 people must be in
favour of it. In turn, if at least 3 people vote against the document,
it is rejected.
