IMPORTANT: CIVS opt-in for Technical Advisory Board voting

[Laura Abbott]

Hello,

As in the past we are using CIVS (https://civs1.civs.us/) for voting.
This year you need to explicitly opt-in to vote in a private poll. This
is a change on the CIVS end and was probably added due to concerns about
spam/abuse of the service.

Please opt-in at https://civs1.civs.us/cgi-bin/opt_in.pl

If you have any questions please feel free to e-mail
tab-elections@lists.linuxfoundation.org

Thanks,
Laura

Hi, did that and it appears that afterwards I could be voting right
away. But there's no link to the candidate statements yet, or did I miss it?

Re: IMPORTANT: CIVS opt-in for Technical Advisory Board voting

[Dave Hansen]

My @linux.intel.com account is the most common one from the git logs.  I
have only received one TAB-related email there:

	Subject: Upcoming Technical Advisory Board election -- look for
		 your ballot

However, I never actually received a ballot at that email, presumably
because of this CIVS opt-in issue.

Was this just me?  Or would it be appropriate to send these opt-in
instructions to all of those that should have received a ballot instead
of just sending to the mailing lists?

I did the CIVS opt-in, and entered the confirmation number.
Still, unlike Vlastimil, I saw no way to vote?
Just retried the opt-in, "already opted-in".

If you use multiple email addresses, make sure to opt-in using the exact
same one on which you received the original email from Laura.
Then there will be a link to the actual poll after entering the confirmation
code.

Yes that is correct. We attempted to consolidate e-mail addresses if you
contribute under multiple ones. This is a pain point we will need to fix
next year.

Will we be getting some futher mail when we should vote?  I opted in but
didn't vote at that time - I saw the vote was listed but didn't realise
that voting was open since people still seemed to be nominating.

How can I do this?  As (IIRC) Geert reported if you've activated your
mail then attempting to activate again causes CIVS to report "This email
address is already activated" with no link to any existing polls.

CIVS said it should give a list of all polls but perhaps that didn't
happen. I'll see if I can get it to resend.

It gives a list of all polls on activation but it seems like it doesn't
get that far on reactivations, it looks like it's generating an error
refusing to activate again before it gets that far.

I just resent the links again. The e-mail server from CIVS can be a bit
slow. Thanks everyone for your patience here.

Do you get the list when following the configuration URL at the
bottom of the activation code email?

BTW, just got an email "Poll: Linux Foundation Technical Advisory
Board Elections 2021". But I've already voted before ;-)

I tried that already (it's linked on their site) but it doesn't list
anything - you can deactivate and reactivate your mail which I tried but
at no point in that process does it show open polls that I noticed.

I did make an attempt to send a message to everyone on the voting list
(which should include your @linux.intel.com mail) in addition to posting
on the list. It's possible either my message ended up in spam or it
got throttled by gmail.
