Description

It could be cool to have an explaination of the algorithm when we choose one.
Instant runof / Borda count is not really clear to me.

I would base myself on existing documents:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borda_count
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instant-runoff_voting

We could just point to those...

BTW, IVR is this in french: http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vote_alternatif ... according to wikipedia at least.

Is this sufficient?
