What is the meaning of the 'XXX electorate' (for example 'Tools Electorate' and 'ON Electorate')? As far as I was aware, there was one 'electorate' (those who can vote in Opensolaris matters). Or more specifically, is there a page that maps the 'old' terms for a community (Affiliate, Contributor, Core Contributor) to the terms used by the new auth system (so that I'm sure I'm reading the information correctly)?
