EVE Online: Elections & Server Downtime

Two announcements of importance to EVE Online players came down the pike today:

• Voting has started for the Council of Stellar Management: These are exciting times, not only for EVE but for the future of virtual worlds in general as the first democratic elections began today for the Council of Stellar Management. EVE Online subscribers may vote for their representatives who will then represent them as council members interacting directly with CCP.
• Tuesday and Wednesday server downtime from 11:00 pm - 1:00 am GMT

Mark your calendars.
