The referred "we", which are supposed to vote, is a body yet to be
defined. Who gets the right to vote? linux users? sysadmins? people who
paid their taxes to the amuta? for that, "we" need to set taxes.
If all it takes is to declare you use linux, or to subscribe to linux-il,
I envision a lot of windows users marching to vote, as some dead people
are known to have been doing for ages in Israel.
Currently, I am proud to be a linux user, and a Haifux member. I do
"missionary" work on every occasion, like I am sure most of you do. But if
being an Israeli Linux user (=amuta member) would mean that I am a part of
an official "shnor" organization, then this is something I would be
ashamed of.
I do not see anything wrong with sponsoring an event, but asking companies
for a regular donation, when they do not know exactly where the money
goes, is different.
