+
+ <h1>Rules &amp; Timeline for The Document Foundation 2013 Board of Directors Election</h1>
+
+ <h2>Elections Rules</h2>
+
+ <ol>
+ <li>
+ See the <a href="http://www.documentfoundation.org/statutes.pdf">The Document
+ Foundation Statutes</a> §12, II for general rules.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ There are 7 board slots and 3 deputy roles that are to be filled during these elections.
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+As per § 7 II of our statues, the Board's term lasts two years. The
+Document Foundation has been formally incorporated on February 17, 2012,
+at which day the current Board of Directors officially was set in place.
+Therefore, the old board remains in charge until the end of February 17,
+2014, so the new board will be in charge the day after that, which is
+February 18, 2014.
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+As per § 6 III, only members of the Board of Trustees of The Document
+Foundation, as well as current members of any of its bodies, are
+eligible to be elected into the Board of Directors, and the election is
+overseen by the Membership Comittee (§ 7 II).
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+The active electoral right is reserved to those who have been members of
+the Board of Trustees before this announcement (§ 7 II).
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+§ 6 III also states that members of the Board of Directors or their
+deputies may not be members of the Membership Committee and vice versa.
+This means that current members of the Membership Committee are eligible
+to the elected, but would have to step down from the Membership
+Committee the minute before accepting to become a member of the Board of
+Directors.
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+There is one more notable limitation: Per § 8 IV of the statutes, a
+maximum of 1/3 members of the Board of Directors is allowed to work on
+an employment basis for the same company, organization, entities,
+affiliates or subdivisions.
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+Nomination of candidates fulfilling the above requirements, as well as
+self nomination is welcome. In total, at least seven Board of Directors
+members are required, and given there are enough candidates, up to three
+deputies can be elected (§ 7 II).
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+Re-election of current members of the Board of Directors is explicitly
+permitted (§ 7 II).
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ Votes will be held confidential during the elections, but an
+ anonymized archive of all submitted votes will be made publicly
+ accessible at its conclusion.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ The Document Foundation Membership Committee is
+ responsible for counting the votes.
+ </li>
+ </ol>
+

+Your Document Foundation 2013 Board of Directors Voting Token
+
+Dear $member,
+
+The election of The Document Foundation Board of Directors will soon
+be open.
+
+Voting will run from 2013-12-10, 00:00 CET/UTC+1 (Tuesday) until
+2013-12-17, 24:00 CET/UTC+1.
+
+To vote, please go to
+https://elections.documentfoundation.org/vote.php?election_id=5
+and follow the instructions there.
+
+A list of candidates and their reasons for running is available at
+https://elections.documentfoundation.org/2013-board/candidates.html
+
+When instructed to do so, enter the following details:
+
+ E-mail: $email
+ Vote token: $token
+
+The election has 4 steps - first, you must identify yourself using the
+voting token above. Then select your preferred candidates in order of
+preference. A third step will show you your choice, and ask you to
+confirm or return to the previous step. Finally, after confirming your
+choice, a unique identifier will be given to you which will allow you to
+verify after the election that your vote was counted correctly. To ensure
+anonymity, no link will be kept between this token and your identifiers,
+so please keep this token safe. Once you have voted, you will not be able
+to vote again.
+
+Thank you for your vote!
+
+Regards,
+ Simon Phipps
+ election secretary, on behalf of The Document Foundation Membership
+ and Elections Commitee
