E is definitely registered now.  CFJ only concerns time of registration,
the two options differing by about eight hours.

Yes.  The earlier possible registration date is some sixteen hours after
the proposal distribution.

However, on a quick scan I don't see the rules explicitly stating at
what point voter eligibility is to be determined.  Eligibility only
takes effect in R683, speaking of ballot submission.  If there's no prior
judicial decision to the contrary, I'd say eligibility is determined at
the time of submission.

Voting limits are explicitly determined as of the start of the voting
period, and R1950 clearly makes BobTHJ's VLDP and VLOP both one if e
is an eligible voter.  Voting limits are used at the end of the voting
period, or possibly at the time results are announced, (R1950 third para)
so I think it's possible to read R1950 as judging voter eligibility at
that time for the purposes of applicability of its first two paragraphs.

The rules are unclear on the voting limits of an ineligible voter.
This would be an issue if BobTHJ is an eligible voter for the purpose
of casting votes but eir ineligibility at the start of the voting period
makes the first two paragraphs of R1950 inapplicable.

Anyone fancy another group of massively-linked CFJs?
