My concern was because I had seen people with no +1, and I wanted every nominee having the opportunity to get voted. I felt like I was spoiling my "+1" by not using them. :)
I don't think veto is right. Vetoes should be handled in the ballot. I mean, I can argue someone is not the right person, but this should not automatically discard them. The nomination mechanism is already giving a filter on who will be proposed. The ability to veto could become a problem if/when there are fighting fractions in the nominating group. > >2- One seconding needed - and acceptance counts > as such too. >3- More than one needed. >4- None needed - except to override a veto.. >5. .... > > >Dw. > > >-- >To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
