      Thanks Noah, i mean particulary a rule which could help to fairly
      address the new "issue" <br>
      raised by some ones onlist.</p>
    <p>...i went through this document [1] and i see that only the
      section 6 provides information <br>
      about what can be called election campaign (so, to be added ?). <br>

    <p>...possible way to go, but my question was a bit off-topic :-/ <br>
    </p>
    <p>I think, there is some need to somewhat clearly define how
      candidates should organize <br>
      their elections campaign. Something like an election campaign
      ethical guidelines :-/</p>
    <p>I went, also, through this Nomcom guidelines [2] then i have seen
      no such a provision. <br>
      If the community agrees with the idea, the BoD could add some
      specific guidelines, <br>
      about election campaign ethic, in section 6 of the BoD Election
      Process and Guidelines [1].</p>
