I don't want to be a whiny bitch, but I would like to register my concerns about the email that was just sent out announcing voting on the election. <div><br></div><div>I'm sure it's too late to change now — and it would appear that we're not using campaign monitor, so we won't have stats on who's receiving and participating — but the email itself is devoid of useful information to help people understand what this is all about, and why they should care.<div>
<br></div><div>Worse is that it was sent from "<a href="mailto:help@oidf.org">help@oidf.org</a>" instead of, say, "director@" or even "elections@". </div><div><br></div><div>I'd like to see this improved if there are going to be subsequent emails sent out. What do I need to do to help improve this?</div>
