Seconded.

Motion to open the floor to suggestions and discussions as to an 
appropriate voting system.

Motion to implement a voting system using Gregg's codebase posted 
to user.r Chat on Wednesday December 23rd.


It's REBOL, it's open, but seems hidden enough to alleviate influence 
decisions based on previous voters, and timelines are now short.


Please note.  Unless someone motions disapproval before or after 
the seconding, but before January 1st, 2010, this motion is worded 
to bypass user.r Formal democracy and go straight to user.r implementation 
the moment the motion is seconded.

Bahnhof

I'd second your motion, but I have a conflict of interest. :-)

Seconded.

Point of Information;  The user.r 2009 roty vote code.

vote: func [name] [

    enbase/base encloak head change head insert/dup copy "" " " 16 form 
    name "roty" 64
]


Please use that function, capture the output and post your vote to 
    user.r Chat


Due to encryption issues please use   'doc, 'brianh, 'henrik, for 
Nenad Rakocevic , Brian Hawley and Henrik Mikael Kristensen.

Bumping...
Vote counting will start on Monday?

Works for me.

Accepting Gregg's response as a second, for a call to end voting; 
 I'd like to motion that we tally up the votes as per the user.r 
Chat example.  Thanks to all participants, and best of luck to our 
candidates.

Brian Hawley has been voted the 2009 rebol Of The Year.  Congratulations. 
 Thanks to the other nominees and all participants.

Motion to open Nominations for the 2010 user.r rebol Of The Year 
awards.

So hard to choose. I'll nominate by category

R2 - NickA
R3 - Henrik
R2+R3 - BrianH

I nominate Robert Muench.

All the guys working on R3 really deserve to be recognized for their 
talent and determination.

+1

We'll all pitch in and have someone geographically close to each 
key player get them a nice beverage of their choosing.

Sorry, I'm new who are the nominees ? When the vote is closed ?

I'd like to nominate Nenad Rakocevic for 2010's rebol Of The Year.


As a reminder, for Bob's Rules, this nomination will require a second.

I'd like to propose a round table vote of acceptance of the voting 
code and procedures posted to user.r Chat, by Sunanda. A negative 
outcome would hopefully be followed by new proposals and discussion.

I'll second the nomination for Robert Muench.

I'll second Nenad Rakocevic

I'd like to nominate Nick Antonaccio.....for his newcomer friendly 
initiatives [Learn REBOL articles, REBOLforum microblog]

I second Nick.

I'll nominate Dockimbel ;-) and also Nick Antonaccio

He's been nominated already; his name is Nenad Rakocevic.

Oui je sais :-) I have problems to understand correctly english...

Point of Information:  Recapping current nominations.  Robert Muench, 
Nenad Rakocevic, Nick Antonaccio.  Participants are encouraged to 
get nomincations in for seconding before December 15th.  Starting 
a vote pass by Dec 15th should give everyone a chance to get in a 
vote before the end of Dec 31st.

Point of information.  Due to time constraints; the motion to vote 
on a rebol Of The Year counts as dead on the table, unseconded.

I'd like to propose we accept Sunanda's user.r chat REBOL voting 
code and method.  If no one raises issue, it will be deemed official 
on Dec 15th, and instructions for participation posted.  Voting is 
scheduled to end with 2010, Greenwich Mean Time.

I second Henrik.

Point of Information:   Gregg posted two nominations.  That goes 
against current roty rules.  One nomination per participant.  But, 
the chair would gladly accept Henrik Kristensen as a nominee, if 
that is acceptable to all.


Motion to include Henrik on the list of candidates.  Declare dissent 
before December 15th.

Seconded.

I nominate Sunanda.

Sunanda seconded

Point of information;  Due to some confusion with Bob's fuzzy Rules 
of Order and to try and keep in the spirit, Brian Hawley will also 
be included in the list of nomincations, unless someone announces 
dissent before Dec 15th.

Point of information: recapping current nominations.
Robert Muench
Nenad Rakocevic
Nick Antonaccio
Henrik Kristensen
Sunanda
Brian Hawley


Voting still scheduled to be held from Dec15th through Dec 31st, 
2010.  Nomincations are still open until Dec 15th.

Point of information.  The roty 2010 vote will be held using

    roty-vote: func [
       Candidate [string!]
       /local ballot-paper
    ][
         random/seed now/precise

         ballot-paper:   rejoin [lowercase candidate "-" random/secure 1e10]
         print ["your vote is:" mold ballot-paper]

         print ["your confirmation code is:" checksum/secure to-binary ballot-paper]
        ]

and sending the results of 

roty-vote "a very hard choice"


in a message on Altme REBOL3, to user btiffin and repeated to Maxim

The hard choice comes from the nominee list of

Robert Muench
Nenad Rakocevic
Nick Antonaccio
Henrik Kristensen
Sunanda
Brian Hawley

Congratulations to all in that respectable list.


Vote results, one per participant, will be accepted until the roll 
over to 2011, Greenwich Mean Time.

as we tabulate votes we will post the confirmation codes here (in 
random order ;-) 


this will allow voters to confirm we've properly added their vote 
to our very sophisticaded vote counting system (a private group which 
will be made public the moment we announce the 2010 roty winner ). 
 


This is to make sure we do not miss your vote due to some possible 
altme bug. (like the first private post of anyone to me doesn't highlight 
their name in my PM list).  I will be logging off/on frequently in 
order for my PMs to be properly synced. 


NB: the voter names are not included in that group, in order to keep 
the votes anonymous.

your confirmation code is: #{380AA4B8B0D4F79D68A749726A3F24C7DF23D7C9}

your confirmation code is: #{793D226F6D0906BD7DE4060306D7821AD6950CB5}

I voted a couple of days ago. My magic code has not appeared. Do 
I get another go?
