Vincent Untz dfbea0c009 put the dates in dd/mm/yyyy format instead of two or three different
2003-10-07  Vincent Untz  <vincent@vuntz.net>

	* index.html: put the dates in dd/mm/yyyy format instead of two or three
	different formats.

	* .htaccess: added so we can redirect people from the old pages to the
	new ones. I'd like to have a htaccess file which is moved to .htaccess
	when copying the website (so it is not hidden in CVS), but that'll be
	for later

	* membership-form.html: removed (we now use membership-form.php)

	* press.html
	* press/*: removed these because we now point to press releases on
	gnome.org.

	* advisory_board.html
	* board_of_directors-2000.html
	* board_of_directors-2001.html
	* board_of_directors.html
	* charter.html
	* directory.html
	* documentation.html
	* executive_director.html
	* faq-ln7.html
	* faq.html
	* index.html
	* membership-list.html
	* membership-policy.html
	* membership.html
	* organization.html
	* template.html: updated the links to the elections pages, and added
	the Fundraising links when it was missing.

	* announcement.html
	* ballot-summary-2000.html
	* election-2000.html
	* electionresults.html
	* electionrules-2000.html
	* final-vote-archive.diff
	* final_membership_list.txt
	* list-addresses.py
	* overview_2000.html
	* vote-counter.py
	* voters-2000.html: removed. Those files are now in elections/2000/
	(some have been renamed)

	* ballot-summary-2001.html
	* election-2001.html
	* electionrules-2001.html
	* voters-2001.html
	* elections/2001-eligible-members.txt

	* elections/2001-vote-archive.diff
	* elections/list-addresses.py
	* elections/verify.html
	* elections/vote-counter.py: removed. Those files are now in
	elections/2001/ (some have been renamed)

	* ballot-summary.html
	* electionrules.html
	* elections.html
	* overview.html
	* voters.html: removed. Those files are now in elections/2002/ (some
	have been renamed)

	* elections/index.html
	* elections/2000/*
	* elections/2001/*
	* elections/2002/candidates.html
	* elections/2002/overview.html
	* elections/2002/rules.html
	* elections/2002/voters.html: new files. Most of them are copies of old
	files with some modifications (because of the change of directory and
	updated title).

<p>To run the vote counting scripts, you need to perform several
steps:</p>
<p>First, obtain copies of the <a
href="http://mail.gnome.org/archives/vote/2001-November.txt.gz">ballot
archive</a> (referred to below as 2001-November.txt), the <a
href="registered-voters.txt">membership list</a>
(registered-voters.txt), and the two voting scripts, <a
href="list-addresses.py">list-addresses.py</a> and <a
href="vote-counter.py">vote-counter.py</a></p>
<p>Then, extract the valid voting addresses from the membership list:
<pre>$ python list-addresses.py registered-voters.txt &gt; addresses.txt</pre>
<p>Next, run the vote counter script; it's probably best to save the results to a file (they are long):
<pre>$ python vote-counter.py 2001-November.txt
gnome-foundation-secret-cXjoS6521 addresses.txt &gt; results.txt</pre>
<p>The results should be in results.txt. A list of errors will be
generated at the top of the output, but note that many of those errors
will represent problems which are fixed later in the archive
(manifested by the voter having a counted ballot later in the
results). The final tallies will be at the bottom.</p>
<p>To exactly replicate the posted results, you should apply this <a
href="vote-archives.diff">diff file</a>, which represents the
votetakers' changes to the voting archive to fix malformatted ballots to
reflect the evident intent of the voters.</p>
