| Re: [jakarta.ee-spec.committee] Ballots via Google Forms |
As long as the result is publicly and transparently visible, why not. See my recent message although the reason for Oliver’s confusion about the approval and time before the project was created may simply be the endless paperwork stuck (from what we heard in the calls mostly at Tomitribe and its legal team) between our approval here and the formal creation of Jakarta NoSQL only a few days ago… Werner From: Wayne Beaton 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.
