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!): Number Name ================= 1 bcon 2 beacon 3 badmin 4 bgui 5 Bacula-Gui (with alternate capitalization "bacula-gui") 6 VanHelsing 7 bat (Bacula Admin Tool) 8 bacon 9 badminton (Bacula ADMIN Tool Nouveau) 10 bac (Bacula Admin Console) 11 Garlic 12 Batula 13 Bagula (Bacula GUi [L] Admin) 14 Bagui (Bacula Admin GUI) 15 Bacgui (Bacula Admin Console GUI) 16 bacula-admin-gui 17 barlic (Bacula Resource Locator InterfaCe) 18 bob (Backup Orchestrator for Bacula) 19 Frontula 20 baculart 21 becon 22 qt-console 23 bqt 24 becuty Happy voting! -- Alan Gerber ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
