It knew more than a year ago that one or more individuals would need to be elected this year. It knew when Wikimania would be held (the latest dates ever). Because of the late Wikimania, following last year's timetable would have given them even more time to get it together than last year. It would not have needed to foreshorten the voting period. What it needs to do soon is to establish a firm timetable for future elections. With no elections scheduled for two years this should not be difficult. There is even plenty of time to do this earlier to be able to deal with any vacancy that may arise.
