Dear all,
Please note below communication about the changes to voter
eligibility. The election officials have unanimously decided to change
the wording on

to read:
"In order to vote you must have at least 400 edits prior to 00:00 May
30, 2005 (UTC) on the Wikimedia project from which you cast your vote.
The first edit must have been 90 days or more before the time of
voting."
This looks bad. Whatever the reasons or validity of a particular change
it should NEVER happen once the election process has started. It leaves
the impression that the election officials can move the goal posts at
any time.
