PEP 8011: Leadership by Trio of Pythonistas (ToP, or simply Trio)

[vstinner (Victor Stinner)]

I just updated my PEP 8015 to explain in depth how to elect a committee of 3 peoples. I chose to use a secret ballot and the Schulze/Beatpath/CSSD variant of the Condorcet method. See my PEP for the rationale and more details.

I’m sorry, but I don’t feel able to write a PR for your PEP I’m exhausted by discussions on the voting method. I didn’t read your PEP carefully to see if they are specific constraints that must be handled carefully during the vote. Maybe ask me again next week if you want

I didn’t expect that organizing a vote would be so complex!?

I’m actually not very picky about what voting method to use here Your reasoning for private voting makes sense, and I’m fine with private voting for the election of the trio. Would anyone here be able to create the PR for it? Thanks.

Do you want it to be private and Condorcet, or private and Approval (e.g. PEP 8001 or PSF board)?

I’m thinking to go with private and Condorcet, similar to what’s outlined in PEP 8001.

Since the PEP already says that and PEP 8001 is going private I don’t think any update is necessary (if there is just let me know and I can make the update).

Thanks, I agree the PEP is accurate at the moment, wrt voting mechanism.
