Nate, 

Here: "If the same person has final authority over each one, I don't see 
how they can be separate in terms of voting."

and

Here: "It sets a terrible precedent.  It means that one person, prolific or 
not, can then be the 
power-behind-the-votes..."

The entire argument that Paul made during that vote was that the Lead 
Developer of a project has the final say over that project's vote. As Lead 
Developer of Aura, Paul has control over that vote, whether he's the voting 
member or not. 

To be very clear: I am in no way upset or bothered by the nomination. I 
think Paul would be a fine secretary, but Aura would need to leave the FIG 
for him to be able to the position and remain impartial.
