WC2 : Ontario aren't the only ones voting

I have just checked Survey Monkey and the results of the vote on the role descriptions are:

 

- 30 votes cast

 

- 28 in favour, 2 against, so the motion passes.

 

I have a church service to prepare this afternoon (no sermon, just Call to Worship and stuff like that) but I hope to kick off a discussion of the Council and how it will be nominated by the end of this weekend. Watch for it!

Seriously, thank you, Mendalla. What you're doing is the stuff that I hate doing, but has to be done.

 

Oh, and the site is coming along nicely as well.

 

For example, I'm unbanned. w00t.

You do not want to play that game with me.

Excellent. I was concerned.

In all honesty, the user privledges system is long and complicated. There are, and I just counted, 96 different settings for user permissions.

 

This is one of the things that is going to take time, sorting all these out.

 

That said, the software is excellent, and moderation options seem straightforward when a moderator is logged in. They just have extra buttons. It's the admin side that is involved. I just need to play with it, and for trying risky things, I can always use a demo forum.

Pinga, is Wc closing beginning of June or end of June?

We were told the end originally. Aaron has not told us anything to contradict that. We aim to get WC2 up well before that so people can transition over.

I guess you know that by peoples' IP addresses, Mendalla.  Can you tell us what percentage (ish) are outside Ontario?

He's away from a computer for a while, and I don't want to mess with Surveymonkey, just like he doesn't mess with the forum control panel, at least until we're up and running and we all understand it.

 

Sorry.

Hilary, is your question related to the "ontario aren't hte only one's voting?"

If so, that was a reference to the calling of an Ontario election

Just me being funny since our poll closed the day after Ontario's premier dropped the writ. If only our election would have as pleasant an outcome as WC2 will be frown. (must check if we have a eyeroll smiley on the new board).
