[Euro-board] Draft (explanatory) text for voting tool

[Wolf Ludwig]

Dear Gisella and all,

the only feedbacks on my draft (explanatory) text for the voting tool 
I got so far from Sandra and Olivier were affirmative, and I believe longer 
introductions and explanations to the issues may not necessarily promote 
clarity. If this is needed on a case to case basis, I can provide this by 
direct / private calls. But time is pressing now and I don't believe that 
there will be any further responses or advice from Board members 
(but still welcome ;-).

As indicated in my previous mail, the Online voting tool should be 
circulated via the EURALO list at least two weeks prior to the GA 
(preferably 10 May) -- that means next Tuesday. And as I don't 
expect spontaneous and broad participation on the announcement 
and circulation of the tool, I / we need several days to mobilize the 
electorate to achieve the two-third quorum needed for the Bylaw 
modifications (= 19 member ALSes out of presently 28) -- what will 
be another challenge again. 

Do you think that At-Large Staff can prepare and provide the tool 
by the beginning of next week? Thanks for your reply and 

kind regards,
Wolf
