Look I haven't attended an ILUGD event for ages and yet I was keenly aware
that this was going on for quite some time. There is usually a pretty
large overlap between the folks who turn up for these meetings and the
people who actually end up doing the work during the event, so not having
an online poll of some sort make exactly zero difference. Besides that,
I doubt that anyone's personal right to show up at LA as an ILUGD member
was somehow taken away.

Since you are not in Delhi, I would assume that the decision for ILUGD
to participate would have had no concrete effect on your being present
to help out. What makes ILUGD different from other LUGs is that it is
based in Delhi. I am sure that the Oslo Linux User Group would welcome
me with open arms if I chose to join their mailing list, but it wouldn't
surprise me if they took it poorly if I felt that I had some sort of
right to dictate their involvement in events in Oslo via online poll.
