How to vote (votebot)

The votebot is running on irc.cacert.org and is connected to the channels #agm and #vote.

< VoteBot> Help for VoteBot
< VoteBot> 
< VoteBot> VoteBot understands the following commands:
< VoteBot> 
< VoteBot> HELP         - this help
< VoteBot> VOTE <topic> - start a vote on <topic> if no other vote is running
< VoteBot> CANCEL       - cancel the currently running vote

a vote can be started by running

/msg votebot vote test vote

Votebot will start the vote timer and will post a short acknowledgement to both #agm and #vote:

< VoteBot> New Vote: jandd has started a vote on "test vote"

After starting a vote the bot listens in #vote and you can vote their using one of the following keywords (defined in https://git.cacert.org/cacert-votebot.git/tree/src/main/java/org/cacert/votebot/shared/VoteType.java#n33):

keyword

meaning

aye, yes, oui, ja

yes, I agree

naye, nay, no, non, nein

no, I disagree

abstain, enthaltung, abs

abstain

Proxy votes can be posted by a command like this in #vote:

proxy <person> <keyword>

The votebot will send a message 30 seconds before the vote ends:

< VoteBot> Voting on "test vote" will end in 30 seconds.

After the vote timeout (120 seconds) the votebot posts a summary of the result in both #agm and #vote, for example:

< VoteBot> Vote "test vote" stopped by timeout. Calculating results.
< VoteBot> Voting on "test vote" has closed.
< VoteBot> Results: for vote on "test vote":
< VoteBot> AYE: 0
< VoteBot> NAYE: 2
