Elections: how to organize?

[Honza Horak]

Hi guys,

my google-fu is not great today, since I fail to search any steps we need to do if we want to organize elections within Fedora community.

Env & Stacks WG agreed in the Charter to have elections aligned with fesco elections, which seems like beginning of the next year. What do we need to do in order to prepare the voting system? Is a trac ticket on infra good enough?

Yep It should be. ;)

We will need to know the list of candidates and who will be able to
vote (cla, cla+1, some group, etc).

Generally, we have an Elections Wrangler coordinating things, and
often/usually/mostly (?) that is the Fedora Program Manager.
