[ga] Re: [ncdnhc-discuss] ISOC to bid on .org
An address is needed to prove that one is a resident of California in order to qualify to vote. One would think this is necessary for most, if not all, states.

It isn't a problem anyway. Whether registrations are in mass or not
is not a relevant valid concern. Hence hardly worth even discussing
or debating.

This seem to very greatly from you comments and statements
in the IDNO as well as the At-Large, Joop. In any event however
why should a registrant/stakeholder/user be required to wait 12 months
to vote on issues that would effect them or for representatives that
may be in a position that they would determine what may effect them
as well? How can you justify this?

Good point here finally Joop. However residential address (Physical)
is not required in the US for voter registration, nor is it in a number of
other modern democratic countries either. As such, why should such
a requirement be imposed in this situation?

Well 5000 is not a good number, but yes, a minimum number should be
considered...
