HOW TO VOTE

First, read the full text of the GR and amendments. The ballot does not claim to be complete rendition of the proposals, or even accurately depict the spirit of each proposal.

Do not erase anything between the lines below and do not change the choice names.

In the brackets next to your preferred choice, place a 1. Place a 2 in the brackets next to your next choice. Continue till you reach your last choice. Do not enter a number smaller than 1 or larger than 4. You may skip numbers. You may rank options equally (as long as all choices X you make fall in the range 1< X < 4).

Make sure you have read the proposals in detail.

To vote "no, no matter what" rank "Further discussion" as more desirable than the unacceptable choices, or You may rank the "Further discussion" choice, and leave choices you consider unacceptable blank. Unranked choices are considered equally the least desired choices, and ranked below all ranked choices. (Note: if the Further Discussion choice is unranked, then it is equal to all other unranked choices, if any -- no special consideration is given to the Further discussion choice by the voting software).

Then mail the ballot to: [e-mail:gr_gfdl@vote.debian.org].=20 Don't worry about spacing of the columns or any quote characters (">") that your reply inserts. NOTE: The vote must be GPG signed (or PGP signed) with your key that is in the Debian keyring.=20
