The low turnout so far suggests that there might be a problem. I've
additionally had one piece of feedback ending in "...so I gave up. Maybe
others did too"[1].

I have yet to decide. Feedback from others appreciated.

One thing I might try to do is arrange a mailshot directly myself -
perhaps using my @canonical.com address - since I think that might get
through to Gmail users OK. This would be just to alert the electorate to
the existing posts to ubuntu-devel-announce@ and ubuntu-devel at . I could
just provide archive links. I can't differentiate between people who
have voted and people who have not, so this would have to go to everyone
I have down as eligible (for whom I have a valid address).

[1] With my help in identifying the correct alias this person reports
they have now voted, so that's good.
