Finalize election timeline
On today's Establishment Committee call, we worked out a tentative schedule and want to get feedback from the Election Committee (Aidan and Joseph) and Nominations Committee (Eileen, Jon, and Michael) for moving forward.
(As a side note, we are issuing a FAQ about the Establishment Committee report but not embarking upon any effort to rewrite the report. Our feeling is that having an elected body in place will be the most effective way forward.)
Date(s) | Step |

Week of July 15 | process and timeline announced |
July 22-31 | nominations open |
August 1-11 | nominations comm. finalizes ballot |
August 12-23ish | elections open |
August 26ish | results announced |
We hope the elections will be completed in time that the Council can meet in September at least once. If there is a way to accelerate the process at all, that would be welcome, but we are also sensitive to allowing enough time (both lead time and process time) so that people can participate even if they are traveling on northern hemisphere summer vacations.
