Some of you have made many suggestions this year and I thank you all for your suggestions. Whenever I originally chose the dates for the CBA this year, I didn't take into account Holy Week so next year that will change.

Beginning next year nominations for the CBA will begin on the Monday after the Second Sunday of Easter (often reffered to as Divine Mercy Sunday). Nominations will run Monday - the next friday (two weeks) and voting will begin the next Monday and also run for two weeks.

So that makes next year's Schedule as follows:

Nominations - April 20, 2009 - May 1, 2009.
Voting - May 4, 2009 - April 15, 2009.

I do have a couple of questions and I hope you leave your comments.

1) Do you think that two weeks for nominations and then two weeks for voting is too long, just right, or too short? In the past we did just a week and it seemed too short.

2) Do you think we should try doing run-offs next year? In the past when I hand tabulated this really didn't work well so I stopped it but now since all this is automated we may think about reinstating it if I get enough feedback.

3) Any other comments or suggestions, drop them in the comments below.
