I understand your concerns, but what's the alternative?
Something other than approval voting -- either simply "support" voting or a ranking system.
That seems unnecessary to me, however.
What is "support voting"? Any kind of preferential voting is far too complicated to be worth it in our case - you generally end up needing a computer program to calculate the results (or a hell of a lot of post it notes!).
I was meaning a simple lack of opposition. Maybe I am misunderstanding what is currently the proposal?
Me, Geni and andrew will discuss what options we have. We will then draw up the final election methods. Clear them with the community, then run the election. Unless we can get access to the software used for the foundation board elections, it will most likely be run via email.
I don't know if it matters, but KTC was on the foundation board elections committee.
