Hello all!

It's that time of the year again -- soon you will be asked to cast your
votes to determine which intrepid group of five will pilot the rugged
Starship AHA for the next six months.  Since October's elections went so
well, we've decided to repeat the process:

- Today - April 19: People can start nominating themselves or others
over the mailing list.

- April 19: If you nominate yourself or accept someone else's
nomination, send an email explicitly stating that you are running to
bo...@allhandsactive.com *by this date!* You might also want to send a
note to this list so that people know you are running.

- April 19 - April 26: If you know that you are unable to make it to the
voting party, you will be able to submit your absentee ballot at the
front desk during this period.  We will send along more info on this as
the date approaches.

- April 26 (technically a day early, so we can do it on a Thursday):
Build-a-board! Converge on AHA around 7:00PM, eat potluck-style foods,
and cast your ballot.

- April 27: New board is put in place.

For those who were not present at the last election, we will be using an
instant-runoff-style vote.  You will assign each nominee a number from 1
to N (N being the number of nominees we have by the 19th).  Higher
numbers represent the nominees you favor most, with 1 being your
least-favored.  We will add up all of your ranking values and pick the
five highest-scoring nominees, who will become the next board.

If you are a fully-paid standard member ($50), student or starving
hacker member ($20) in April, you are entitled to one vote.  You are
welcome to become a paying member at any time up until the 26th if you
would like to be counted for this election.

For your memory-stimulating convenience, the current board may be found
below:
Alexander Honkala
Kimberly Frey
Michael Senkow
Nathan Dotz
Nathan Yost

See you on the 26th!
