Re: [ga] Final draft of proposed mailing list rules
Roberto and everyone else,
First let me say that it is obvious that William Walsh's assumption
was false as Joop has already clarified.
Secondly, unless or until the election ending on October 8th '99
is re-held open for all to participate in the election of the Chair
is also re-held, any election the DNSO might do now, is, and will
remain illegitimate in it's proceeding.

The limitations were known to me, because I was participating in the
IDNO when the discussion on the voting booth took place.
This is just an initial try to get an opinion poll together. Of course,
when we will perform a "real" vote (I mean with identity verification
and all that stuff) we will make sure that the technology will not be an
obstacle to the voters. Right now, it seems to me that the causes for
low participartion are mainly others.
