4 more days of Gentoo Council voting: Why and how in 3 seconds

NOTE: You can ignore this if you're not a Gentoo developer.

Why vote?

If you have the impression your vote doesn't matter - think again: With most selections there are candidates that you do not want to win. So in case you don't have positive preferences choose anybody else. That decreases the chance of the others. Simple thing, probably not applied enough.

How?

ssh dev.gentoo.org
votify --new council200912
nano -w ~/.ballot-council200912  # re-order candidates
votify --verify council200912
votify --submit council200912
