The "voting booth" has now opened and his waiting for you in woodpecker.
Be sure to run "votify --help" as suggested by the "informative" motd
set by Shyam (fox2mike).

Quick voting helper:
$ votify --new council200906 [1]
$ $(editor) .ballot-council200906 [2]
$ votify --verify council200906 [3]
$ votify --submit council200906 [4]

 [1] - create a ballot in your home dir with the name of all the devs
running for the election
 [2] - rank devs according to your preference (names at the top have
precedence over names at the bottom and all names in the same line have
the same preference)
 [3] - important step to verify your ballot and ensure there is nothing
wrong with it
 [4] - don't forget to submit your ballot or it won't count!!!

As you may have noticed, this means there'll be 15 days to vote and not
14 days. As I made a mistake in the original mail, we'll let it run the
extra day instead of causing any confusion by respecting the 14 days
voting period - so there'll be one less excuse not to vote! ;-)

We'll update the page with links to the manifestos as they came in -
devs running for the election wanting to provide a manifesto please send
an email to the dev ml with the URL.
