This has happened before. The secretary adjudicates any disputes about interpretation of the constitution. I would suggest that in future, it doesn't get this far by a proposer asking the secretary for their probable view *first* if they're proposing anything which may require a supermajority. Or anyone could simply ask the secretary for advice about any GR, and I'm sure they'd receive a comment about phrasing/legitamacy/quorate etc. Neil -- <weasel> dpkg: shut up <dpkg> No, I won't, and you can't make me. :P <weasel> hah. _I_ can -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-vote-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
