[4:00pm] plocher: Grants that expired after the "freeze" should have
been valid for this election.
The poll sw dropped access to those "OK at the
beginning, but not at the end" CCs in
the middle of the meeting/election, which should not
have happened.
The OGB discussion was for those whose grants expired
before the freeze.
(As I said in my mail to Stephen, the 2/16 date was from memory as the
freeze date we agreed upon, I may have misremembered it +/- a few
days...)
