I agree to that and one of the reasons why I'm seeing it that way is that I
wasn't able to make an informed decision when voting. There was just a list of
names and for many of them I didn't really know what each candidate would stand
for.
So I made choices primarily based on whether I had good or bad experience with
them in collaboration and communication - which is awful to use as criteria for
such a voting.
I'd rather vote for a candidate that I like less or I had been in disagreement
with, if that person's goals and ideas align with mine - but how can I know? I
might know for some but not for all of the candidates and I think similar
applies to other members in the GA as well.
Hence my suggestion to install certain "Positions", each with a certain area of
responsibility and candidates who apply for a certain position would lay out
their ideas, strategies, focus areas and what they are aiming to achieve within
the period for which they get elected.
This would allow to vote about directions for the project rather than just
names of persons which you might not even know.
