sorry, poor pronoun placement on my part. my meaning was: also, with the Condorcet + SSD election method, is the supermajority requirements really required? the supermajority requirement does allow a vocal minority to block an action. the case brought up, changing the constitution, i think is a good example: it requires 3:1. this means that such an option requires a lot of buy-in. i'm ambivalent over the whole Supermajority and Quorum thing. I'll re-read the lastest draft, real slowly, and see how i feel after that. -john -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
