My intention was that any eligible voter may nominate or second. Nominees

Works for me.
I believe it is made clear elsewhere that a potential vote-taker
can be nominated, but then must not serve as a vote-taker.
Yes - potential vote-takers who are candidates must recuse themselves
from the vote-taking. I think that this is clear in the document as it
stands.
Note that there's a minor chicken-egg thing here, which is that the
vote-taker also takes nominations, and so we might end up in a situation
where the only vote-taker must recuse himself, and someone else has to take
over. The process as written will deal with this, though.
Eligibility to vote is determined by those who are subscribed
to, or
have posted to, the standardisation group during the time
period from
the 1st of June to the 1st July of the appropriate year.
I can't remember if this was discussed, or if so, whether we
reached consensus.
It was discussed, IIRC.
Ugh. Sorry; I wasn't actually referring to the text quoted. I was
referring to the question I was about to ask...
Should the chairs post the list of eligible voters at some point
before elections begin?
Perhaps. At what point do you think they should do so? Do we need
measures to allow the electoral roll to be challenged, or is this all
getting too complicated?
Formally, probably not. But we do need an opportunity for people to notice
errors and point them out before the roll is set in stone.
