.. _Election system:
Election System
===============
Elections will be held using CIVS and a Condorcet algorithm
(Schulze/Beatpath/CSSD variant). Any tie will be broken using
Governance_TieBreaking_.
Electorate
==========
The electorate for this election are the Foundation individual members that
are also committers for one of the `official project teams`_ repositories over
the |Timeframe|.
The electorate is requested to confirm their email address in gerrit,
review.openstack.org > Settings > Contact Information > Preferred Email,
prior to |PreferredEmailDeadLine| so that the emailed ballots are mailed
to the correct email address.
The electorate is expected to abide by the following general resolution:
https://governance.openstack.org/resolutions/20140711-election-activities.html.
Candidates
==========
Any member of an election electorate can propose their candidacy for the same
election. Nominees propose their candidacy by submitting a text file to the
openstack/election repository. See documentation below.
.. _How to submit a candidacy:
How to submit your candidacy
============================
If you are not already familiar with OpenStack development workflow, see this
more detailed documentation:
http://docs.openstack.org/infra/manual/developers.html
Candidacies now need to be submitted as a text file to the openstack/election
repository. Here are the required steps:
* Clone the election repository:
git clone git://git.openstack.org/openstack/election ; cd election
* Create a new file candidates/newton/<project_name>/<irc_name>.txt
containing your candidate statement.
* Commit your candidacy: git add candidates/newton/*/*.txt;
git commit -m "Adding <your_name> candidacy for <project_name>"
* Submit your candidacy: git review
For example if John Doe (jdoe on IRC) wants to become the Newton Nova PTL,
he needs to write his candidacy to "candidates/newton/Nova/jdoe.txt"
After it's submitted to gerrit, verification and approval is being done by
elections officials. Then the approved candidate list above is updated.
