Voting system Community Group Proposed

The Voting system Community Group has been proposed:

--------------------------------------------------

There has been lengthy and recurrent discussions about reforming the
voting system for AB/TAG elections. 


The current system is allegedly broken as it is stated by various
members, but the AC is not willing to work on this unless someone comes
up with a comprehensive explanation and proposal.


There are many alternatives:
* pick up one alternative voting system
* work on a tool to create simulation
* use this tool for **non official** ballot at the same time as an
official ballot (which would be used with the current systen)


All of these items have been proposed in various email threads in
w3c-ac-forum and public-w3process list, not repeating the links here for
the sake of conciseness.

--------------------------------------------------

You are invited to support the creation of this group:
  http://www.w3.org/community/groups/proposed#voting

Once the group has a total of five supporters, it will be launched and
people can join to begin work. Once launched, the group will no longer
be listed as "proposed"; it will appear in the list of current groups:
  http://www.w3.org/community/groups/

In order to support the group, you will need a W3C account. To request one:

If you believe that there is an issue with this group that requires
the attention of the W3C staff, please send us email on
site-comments@w3.org.

Thank you,
W3C Community Development Team
