The voting RFC is unclear but aside from that, there are two non-vcs accounts with voting karma today: User: damz: Damien Tournoud - damz@damz.org User: hywan: Ivan Enderlin - ivan.enderlin@hoa-project.net Not saying they should or should not, but just saying. And I'm not sure how/when they received the voting karma but it happened. Regards, Philip
