Who will run the election Process: An Election Coordinator will be designated from within the Akraino Community. The Election Coordinator should be a non-running member. Instructions on how to use the CIVS voting system are available here.
Note: Please ensure that both the name and email address for each member is listed on each sub-committee membership wiki page in order to properly set up CIVS voting when required. Not doing so will cause delays for the Election Coordinator in setting up and executing the voting process.
