Why wouldn't the quorum change? The highest numbered proposal in the purported resolution had 10 voters.  With Telnaior, it would go to 11. By Rule 879, quorum is ceil(2/3*(# voters on last resolved decision to adopt a proposal)). 10*2/3=6.666..., which goes to 7. With Telnaior, 11*2/3=7.333..., which goes to 8.

Am I making a wrong assumption about which proposal resolution counts as the most recent?

Quorum might be wrong, given this CoE on the Assessor report by G (in a
reply to the thread):
Thanks for pointing that out; you're right that I didn't notice. On
this occasion, quorum is unchanged due to the way the rounding works
out.

CoE:  This leaves out my votes on Telnaior's behalf, which change the
outcome of at least one proposal I think (8184).

Also, what exactly is your "standard reward policy"?
A small reward of coins and my sincere gratitude.

Title: auctions have fees
Adoption index: 1.0
Author: G.
Co-authors:


[The payment rule for auctions just says that if you happen to have an
auction debt, if you pay Agora under any circumstances, it triggers
stuff.  This means, if someone happens to have two auction debts, they
can make one payment and it would count for both.  This brings things
into line.]

Amend Rule 2551 (Auction End) by replacing:
    The winner of a lot SHALL pay the Auctioneer the number of the
    Auction's currency equal to eir bid, in a single payment, in a
    timely fashion.
with:
    The winner of the lot SHALL, in a timely fashion, pay a fee (the
    number of the Auction's currency equal to eir bid) to the
    Auctioneer in order to satisfy eir auction debt.

[This makes "satisfying eir auction debt" a fee-based action governed
under R2579, which didn't exist when the auction rules were written.
R2579 then takes care of the various CANs and method details.  The
transfer of the lots is then a consequence of "satisfying eir auction
debt"].
