Re: Resolving the PEAR Group election tie

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1

I am personally wary of #2, as this seems against the spirit of the new government, where the larger developer population makes the choice of who will represent them, so I encourage the PEAR Group to discard #2 as a viable option, and instead investigate #1 or #3.

I'm actually most in favor of #2. This is exceptionally common in representative governing bodies where the elected body can appoint / approve / break ties. A few examples would be the thousands of people the President appoints with Congress's approval and my own condo board, which can both select people to fill vacancies in between elections and vote internally on who is which position. I'd say the best choices are: 1.) The Group chooses the final person with the President breaking any ties. 2.) President appoints someone and the Group affirms said appointment. My less favorite option is that there is a run-off election. My absolute least favorite is that one of them bows out. - --Joe -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (Darwin) iD8DBQFGN8Tth0MUGpYY9OQRAslYAJ9iWc1fcKlYxAl4OXKOac+JZBYFeACghE4s xuJqqAp9MzvbFCDEAG9AZkk= =f3rz -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
