You are referring to the process concluded by that debian-devel-announce
mail, IIUC:
https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2013/11/msg00008.html
It did multiple things:
- Publishing the list of candidates, to thank people for their
willingness to serve
- Pointing out which were considered to be on the ballot and which were
not
- Public ranking the ballot candidates by all individual TC members
Our current process doesn't do any of this, as we're:
- Not publishing the list of candidates not-almost-elected at all
- Thanking all nominees and unelected candidates in private
- Deciding the recommandation order (would it matter) internally
- Having the public vote on each candidate individually
My current thinking is that the advantages of our current process
overcome the advantages of publishing the list of nominees or candidates
at any point in time during the process.
We can certainly discuss this!
