Linux-IL who are subscribed to this list, as well as other Linux activists, but I don't know people who are activly encouraging Linux use and are not on this list - so the Linux-IL subscribed users are allowed to vote. Of course - once there is an Amuta - nothing would prevent anyone from registering to the Amuta, as long as the person is willing is to volunteer for help. Once we have an Amuta - we can set the goals of what activity is needed, and how it can be done. > 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.
