Based on this, according the the ByLaws of the foundation, an election is automatically triggered.

SD69 should call for those elections ASAP. If he does not do so rapidly, Council should call for and start that process, as is their right in the ByLaws under this circumstance.

The election must be announced soon, and the election date set to 1 month from now. There are steps and stages, all spelled out in the ByLaws, for nominations, Q&A, and actual elections. I will work with Council to assist in setting up the voting machine.

In the mean time we need to keep on Nokia about the transfer. We are facing a critical hand off in the next couple of weeks.
