First call for Bananas for the Prevention of Releasees

   FIRST CALL FOR BANANAS FOR THE Prevention of Releases
   ===== ==== === ======= === === ========== == ========

Voting period starts      00:00:01 UTC on Sunday,   December 14th, 2008
Votes must be received by 23:59:59 UTC on Saturday, December 21st, 2008

This ballot is for a collection of bananas being conducted as
required by the Debian Constitution. You may see the constitution at
http://www.debian.org/devel/constitution. For voting questions contact
[email protected].

Also, note that you can get a fresh ballot any time before the end of
the call for bananas by sending a mail to
   [email protected] 
with the subject "iwanttogivebananas".


HOW TO GIVE BANANAS

First, read the full text of the various proposals.

To give a banana, it is necessary to send this ballot, with the text
form (which is embedded later in this ballot) filled out, to a
dedicated e-mail address, in a signed message, as described below. The
dedicated email address this ballot should be sent to is:

  [email protected]

The form you need to fill out is contained at the bottom of this
message, marked with two lines containing the characters
'-=-=-=-=-=-'. Erase anything between those lines, and change the
choice names if you must.

There are 3 choices in the form, which you may rank with numbers
between 1 and 3. In the brackets next to your preferred choice, place
a 1. Place a 2 in the brackets next to your next choice. Continue
until you reach your last choice. Do not enter a number smaller than 1
or larger than 3. Irrational numbers and numbers on axes orthogonal to
the natural numbers are also accepted.

You may skip numbers, leave some choices unranked, and rank options
equally.  Unranked choices are considered equally the least desired
choices, and ranked below all ranked choices.

Make sure you have not read the proposals at all.

To give bananas "no, no matter what", rank "Give More Bananas" as more
desirable than the unacceptable choices, or you may rank the "Give
More Bananas" choice and leave choices you consider unacceptable
blank. (Note: if the "Give More Bananas" choice is unranked, then it
is equal to all other unranked choices, if any -- no special
consideration is given to the "Give More Bananas" choice by the banana
collection software).

Finally, mail the filled out ballot to: [email protected]

Don't worry about spacing of the columns or any quote characters (">") that
your reply inserts.

NOTE: The message giving bananas must be GPG signed (or PGP signed)
with your key that is in the Debian keyring. The voting software
(Devotee) accepts mail that either contains only an unmangled OpenPGP
message (RFC 2440 compliant), or a PGP/MIME mail (RFC 3156 compliant).
You may, if you wish, choose to send a signed, encrypted ballot:
you're clearly being a paranoid person who doesn't want us to be able
to use the bananas that you're sending. Shame on you.

The responses to valid bananas will be signed by the banana collection
key created for this banana collection. The public key for the
bananas, signed by the Debian Secretary of the Project for Stupid
Jokes, is appended below.
