If effort is a metric of ability to affect voting, shouldn't people who maintain more packages get more proxies? Should people who do more (like debian-installer, release management, archive maintenance, etc) also get more proxy votes? Personally, I don't think that voting rights are a reward for effort spent, really. manoj -- Most Texans think Hanukkah is some sort of duck call.
