OTW is the group that runs (among other things) AO3 and Fanlore, and it has serious problems.  Over the last few weeks of election campaigns, a lot of dirty laundry has come out.  If OTW and its projects are to be sustainable, there needs to be serious changes made in the way it handles internal conflict, mentors its volunteers, and implements code.

If Naomi Novik (i.e. one of the founders, who got the ball rolling but also was a major influence in setting up the screwy system they've got now) is re-elected, I do not believe such major changes will be made, and in that case I do not believe the OTW and its projects will last very long at the rate they're burning out volunteers.  PLEASE DO NOT VOTE FOR NAOMI NOVIK.

Example of shenanigans within OTW: "The chair of the board has been told by someone/s to stop working on a strategic plan for the organisation because she doesn't have the authority to do so. "  And the president's post on OTW.
