Hello,

I've volunteered to tally up votes for the name of the GUI interface 
that Kern described in his post to the bacula-users and bacula-devel 
lists on 16 Jan 2007.  For the operational details and concepts of this 
tool, please see the Gmane archives at 
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.bacula.user/30694 (beware of line 
wrapping!).

You have until Friday, January 26th at midnight Eastern Standard Time to 
cast your votes.  Only votes cast in the manner described below will be 
counted.

We received 24 name proposals in total, most of them fitting a common 
theme.  I've not removed any name brought up from the email lists from 
the voting ballot - I thought it important that Bacula users get to have 
the most voice possible in the name of the new program.

Voting instructions:

Voting will be very similar to the voting method used for Bacula project 
development.  Below are the specific rules involved:

Very important. Please send your vote to the following email address:

 [EMAIL PROTECTED]

If you want the list to know how you voted, you may copy your response 
to the list.  Please don't copy Kern or myself directly - you MUST use 
the email address above for your vote to be counted!

You can vote for up to 3 different names.  Your vote will be weighted 3 
points for the first choice, 2 for the second, and 1 for the third.  
This is to obtain data for a secondary and tertiary name should it turn 
out that the first-place name cannot be used for whatever reason.

Please use the table below in the email.  All you need to do is put the 
name number you want to vote for after the appropriate priority.  
Priority 1 is the highest, and priority 3 is the lowest.  You may only 
cast one vote for any particular name, you can vote for less than three 
names if you wish, and please only vote once.  If you do not vote using 
the table below, then your vote will be discarded (it is too hard to 
figure out what you *might* want).


Priority  Name Number
=========================
1
2
3

A correct vote response could be:

Priority  Name Number
=========================
1            5
2           10
3           40

Where the above means that you want name 5 above all others, following 
by 10, and your last choice, 40.

If you have any questions about the voting, please email the list 
instead of me directly.

The names and numbers list are as follows (best viewed with a monospace 
font, and apologies if I've missed anyone's suggestion!):

2        beacon
