Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

The board and secretary nomination process requires several manual steps, including reaching out to members directly via email, Slack, and Election Buddy. Automating the process will free up time to work on higher-impact work within the scope of the secretary role.

Describe the solution you'd like

Use a combination of n8n and GitHub.

Additional context

Example of board nominations page, can create the page automatically: https://f-droid.org/2026/02/26/board-of-directors-nominations.html
