I'm reposting the rules with changes as noted.
                  C_PlusPlus Moderator Election Rules
                  -----------------------------------
1.  The voting period will run from 1-Feb-1998 through 28-Feb-1998.
2.  The new moderator will be announced in C_PlusPlus on 1-Mar-1998 and will
    assume office on 8-Mar-1998 or earlier where feasible. 
3.  Anyone who posted a message to C_PlusPlus within the month of December,
    1997, is eligible to vote.
4.  Votes should be sent directly to me via NetMail to 1:106/2000.6 or email
    to rbs@snippets.org. All voters should expect a confirming message.
    Please be aware that sometimes I have problems with NetMail. So use
    Internet email where possible.
5.  If anyone has, or seems to have, any real problems getting their vote to
    me, they may, as a last resort, post their votes in C_PlusPlus. This
    obviously violates the concept of a secret ballot, and is therefore
    discouraged unless all other means of voting have been exhausted
    unsuccessfully.
6.  The candidates are: *
      Darin McBride
      Roger Scudder
      Tom Torfs
Bob Stout
Temporary acting moderator, C_PlusPlus 
*  Note that, per my previous posting of the rules and ballot, Jonathan de
   Boyne Pollard's name has been removed from the ballot since I never
   received a response indicating he met the previously stated (and, by now,
   much discussed) requirements for candidacy. If anyone has previously
   submitted a ballot for Jonathan, please resubmit another ballot, if you
   wish, for some other candidate.
