I still don't understand how this is supposed to work. If
there is some kind of eligibility test (eg the ability and
willingness to write 75 words on your interests in the
Scheme standardization process), then what happens in the
case of a questionable statement? Undoubtedly some people
will feel that the SC's judgement in such a case might vary
depending on who the person was voting for.
I would tend to prefer the separate registration and voting, if
only because it makes things more explicit, sets a good precedent,
and makes things like this less troublesome. Just make sure the
registration deadline is sufficiently clear and easy to meet.
