I don't know.

Just to clarify:
Actually, neals script uses openstv-run-election which is included in the "OpenSTV Software". So neals script just performs the "extended" voting process as proposed by neal using the standard "OpenSTV Software" package.

Edit:
This post is not intended to express or imply a preference for any of the proposed voting systems.
As I submitted an app to the contest myself I don't feel right on deciding the voting system to be used.
Edit2:
I also didn't vote for the very same reason.

does it mean that nemein should be able to deliver the final, official results using the "extended voting"?

Okay, and if we'd run the election like if it would be for just one seat -> 1st place, then for two seats -> second place, and so on?

Please see the edits in my last post and please excuse me that I cannot help in this decision.

Is it possible to use the same counting method we always used for the maemo
community council elections?

Thanks!

We are unable to use this because we need a ranking. "Who got the most votes? - Who is the second?" :(

Interesting would be if the borda-count system would deliver those out of the box. It should... but... :confused:

What are you confused about? Have you actually tried?

Only in my imagination... I don't own the software - so I don't know what output the software would produce if we select "borda-count".
I simply studied the documentation at their web page. This was one of the election systems I was able to understand without many problems. :D

Aaaah... okay. I read only this webpage: openstv download (5$)

I have now only my N9 with me. Will try to find some time this evening. :)

EDIT: Sorry, got a commitment for my appointment this evening. So perhaps tomorrow or today late at night. :(
