Well, that is one possible solution (let it ride). I don't know what the level of email address duplication is, so I don't know the risk. Voting systems generally have to make a lot of effort to be fair, otherwise detractors can reasonably claim that the result is not valid. And as this is somewhat of a bike-shed level decision, you should expect a great deal of interest and passion!

Given the size of the group, and the extremely high standard of the members when it comes to moral fibre, common sense, intelligense, etc, etc, do we really need to enforce prevention of duplication? :-) /M -- Magnus Therning(OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) magnus＠therning．org Jabber: magnus＠therning．org http://therning.org/magnus identi.ca|twitter: magthe ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe

I've been subscribed to café for a long time with at least two email addresses (work and home) but I don't think I should be getting two votes.
