Plans are underway to decommission Nuancier[1]. Nuancier was custom

Had offered to update this. Would it be ok for me to write something
new? Alternatively, Discourse does have some voting plugins. Could
create another plugin if that would be helpful. Note that Discourse is
used by the Krita community to enable discussions on artwork
https://krita-artists.org/ though storage requirements can increase
somewhat.
To give better vote privacy, one typically has three separate databases,
ideally run completely separately. One database contains eligible voters
does vote verification, and a third contains a tally. A simpler but well
tested system is implemented in:

Maybe this could also be helpful for Fedora elections?
As such, Fedora Infra is moving towards decommissioning this
application, and archiving all the data, images, and voting
statistics. Also, the source of this application[2] will be archived
in GitHub.
For ongoing information and discussion on this process please view the
