Congrats to everyone else that was elected.
Seriously well done to all those who won; I'm sure that they'll do a good job. I'd like to know where those 110 people were in the hustings though...
Also thanks for all the work on the OpenSTV software and the time people put in to make this vote possible in this way.
I am sure Labour will want to share it for the Leader contest
I have set up a board <at> pirateparty.org.uk group which is probably a good place to start. I would suggest that someone who has the contact detail for the 12 elected people sends out an email too all of them noting that they were elected and asking what email address they would like to have added to the board group for them. Then the Board could start sorting things out among themselves.
[Perhaps a forum magician could also create a new forum group for Board members and have it display under their name as well? Or is that not needed/too complicated?]
Very happy with the board members that I've been elected to work with and couldn't have asked for a better team really.

I don't know if anyone has any plans for this yet. I've PMd all other successful candidates with my email address, and if people wish to share their preferred email address with me I am happy to collate them and pass them on to whoever is organising a mailing list, or just initiate a bulk CC email so that we all have everyone else's email address and can start discussing how we wish to get ourselves organised.
