since you already hacked poll module, we'll also need a vote module, this will be used for our voting system (to seperate votes from polls and to make calculation of quorum and majority automatic).

can you prototype this?

cheers,

spec is the charter I suppose, but we haven't decided the details yet so I just ask for a prototype.

the module should.

  • calculate quorum by querying the number of senior users, admis and moderators (user roles) and display a message saying n many votes needed to reach quorum.
  • keep track of voting period, it should have a counter saying n days left for poll, there should be a way to edit the value of the counter manualy but it should default ot 10 and decrement once every day.
  • it should highlight majority, majority is defined in the charter not as simply the the option with more votes but as the option with more votes that gets at least a minimum number of votes, if an option reaches this minimum is should be highlighted (displayed in different colors)
  • if a poll fails to reach majority or quorum it is an failed poll and needs to be repeated, indicate this somehow after passing half the voting period so people would know before hand.

maybe we could automate the vote repeat process too, dunno, as I said it will be a prototype only there is still much to consider and think about.

cheers,
Alaa

just copy the polls tables
1- create reservation,reservation_choices that are identical to poll,poll_choices
2- alter reservation_choices and add a field "chusers" of type "longinteger"
