I'd like to take this chance to recall all foundation members that
since the last Foundation Bylaws update, any member of the Foundation
loses his membership after not voting for 2 consecutive Foundation
elections. This means that any members that joined the Foundation
before the 2011 election and that didn't vote for that election will
lose their membership if they don't vote in this election.
If you have any doubts about this point, please contact the Trustees
or the election officials.

If you have any doubts about the election or any corrections to the
page and lists, contact the election officials.

For the election officials,

Regards,
