Hi everyone,

I've recently been looking for a good DokuWiki plugin to allow users to call 
and participate in OpenNIC votings and found, what looked like the perfect 
plugin: https://www.dokuwiki.org/plugin:doodle3

Quick testing of the plugin however showed that it has many bugs and some 
security issues, essentially rendering it unusable for our use-case, but I 
took some of my free time to look through the code of this plugin and write 
up our own OpenNIC voting platform plugin.

You can find the code on GitHub at 
https://github.com/opennic/dokuwiki-opennic-vote-plugin and there's an 
example voting happening on the Wiki right now: 
https://wiki.opennic.org/votes/piwik

Everyone, please let me know what you think about the idea of moving our 
voting over to the Wiki where we can have a clearly structured archive of 
voting results with documentation and historical information. 

I'm willing to keep maintaining this plugin and extending its features¹ as 
required to fit our needs but for now I'd like to see if there's a chance at 
all that this gets accepted by the community.

Thank you for your attention and thanks for flying OpenNIC!

¹) One of the features I can think of right now would be a fully automated 
email to the OpenNIC mailing list when a new vote gets added to the Wiki.
