MWKN Weekly News: 14 May 2012


Delays in getting Maemo Community Council election started

An administrative mix-up seems to be to blame for delaying the start of the Maemo Community Council election, which was scheduled to start on May 6. There has been lots of back-and-forth on the forum thread about whose responsibility it was to start the voting process and who should be initiating communication to get it started now. After a bit of a rough start it seems the wheels are moving on the process, thanks in part to the level-headed Quim Gil stepping in. It remains to be seen when the voting will actually begin, but hopefully there will at least be an announcement made soon with an updated timeframe.

Thanks. Contributions from those with more time to browse TMO (in particular, there're bound to be N900 announcements being missed) welcome: http://wiki.maemo.org/Maemo_Weekly_News#Implementation

However, I would share your thanks with GeneralAntilles and fiferboy for their editing, and all the contributors that @mwkn follows.
