This is OK for myself and others like me who registered domain names 
prior to 1999 (hermesnetwork.com registration was created: 1998-06-05 ), 
but what about the millions of valid registrants after 1999?  I don't 
think it behooves any of us to seriously consider such a definition.  As 
for Kent's suggestion of a six-month GA membership condition for voting 
tatus, I don't think it's such a good idea either.  There are plenty of 
reasons why someone would not want to / could not remain subscribed to 
the GA in perpetuity (change of address, overwhelming sense of disgust 
with ICANN and the NC, etc.). I recognized a few of the names in the 
purported "New Registrations" in the GA Voting Registry, and I'm sure 
others did as well.  In short, I do not think there is currently any 
sort of hoi polloi capture issue in the GA Voting Registry.  If anything 
there is quite probably an IPC and BC block of registered GA voters who 
make up the bulk of the eligible voters on the entire list already, 
which might explain many things with respect to past GA votes and their 
outcomes..  

Cheaters are quite often the biggest complainers _against_ cheating.

Sincerely,

Sotiris Sotiropoulos
