We also did the same at Rackspace. I would be interested in our voting
percentage.

I have done the same within VMware. I can make a difference at my company,
more than in the public. If we could get a voting breakdown by foundation
member companies that would be really helpful. Votes cast per company and
total foundation members per company. I don’t mind being shamed if VMware
has a low percentage voted.



I would be in favor of getting the vmware foundation member roll and asking
those that don’t vote to remove themselves from being vote eligible.

Monty and I sent a couple of messages to the HP members kindly explaining
the importance of voting in the election and encouraging them to vote.



Best,

The key thing for me is where to place the effort. I am not convinced that
Re-tweeting is going to make quorum.



>From the non-voters, are there significant shares within companies where a
board member or sponsor could explicitly encourage voting ?

Indeed. Can we please see the number who've completed their ballots each
day so we know how close/far we are???



Cheers

How are we doing ?



What other channels are available ? Tom and Stefano are working on the user
groups.



Can we identify who has not voted and emphasise the need (especially if we
can do it with the appropriate company sponsor)  ?



I feel twitter has been exhausted, especially with the auto-tweeting bot.



I’d like to avoid doing this all again next year.

Hi everyone,



Thanks for the help promoting this election so far. We have 13,490 eligible
voters, so our 25% quorum line is 3,373. We’ve had a little over 900 voters
complete their ballots in the first day. Good progress, but we still have a
long way to go. We’re continuing to send reminder emails to the voters who
have not yet completed their ballots through the rest of the week and
appreciate continued support from all of you.



Jonathan

We plan to heavily promote election week on all channels and could use your
help to get the word out.



Thanks!

Mark
