Re: [jakarta.ee-spec.committee] Ballots via Google Forms

["Kevin Sutter" <sutter@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Wayne,
I voted last week
when you first sent out the note.  I just tried the link again and
it indicated "sorry, you've already responded".  But, I
could click on the link to modify my response.  I then proceeded to
change the email address I used and changed my response.  It seems
to be logged appropriately.  

I have no idea
how you logged two entries for yourself.  Maybe because you created
the Form, you have special privileges?  Really, not enough experience
with Forms to know.

I put the form in the Specification Committee's
Google Drive. Everybody with access to that drive should have access to
the file.

It certainly feels like it works.
However, as I stated in the start of this thread, I have no way of knowing
with certainty that any particular entry was actually created by the person
with the email address indicated. You notice, for example, that there are
two responses from wayne@xxxxxxxxxxx.
This email address was associated with neither of the accounts that I used
to vote. 

AFAICT, Google Forms does not provide
me with a means of accessing the account information of the responder.
That information must be in there somewhere, but it's not exposed. FWIW,
I did try exporting to a spreadsheet; that didn't help.

Feel free to tinker with the form.

In the meantime, I'm going to start the
next round of reviews via the established channel.

Ed has inspired me to try a different
approach for ballots.

I've cobbled together a Google Form to
capture votes for the Jakarta EE Platform restructuring. I've marked it
as "unofficial", so consider your interaction with the form as
nonbinding. I've configured so that it requires that you sign-in and specify
your email address. I've configured it to allow you to revisit and change
your answer.

AFAICT, there's no built-in way to restrict
who gets to vote. I also can't sort out an easy way to prevent somebody
from answering for somebody else (there're some tricks, but they're cumbersome).
In short, we can use it to run a ballot, but I'm not sure that we can use
the results.

Anyway... please have a look.
Let me know what you think.
