Din - sorry but that is not necessary right now. Right now only the panel will vote on the issue and obviously, having volunteered ALL panel members need to vote according to the system (instant run-off) that Jny has proposed. When ALL the votes are in from the panel members Jny and I (and someone else if it's wished) will add them up and compare our results... unless of course there are any major objections to this proposed IRV system. Jny has sent out an email alert to everybody on the panel and the timelimit of 'objection to the proposed IRV' is 24 hours.
As to which members (the B77 members at large) want, or are being given voting rights, well, I think that needs to be discussed further down the agenda when we get to members rights, duties, code of conduct etc. Right now I don't think this is relevant. There was a suggestion on the table to possibly created different levels of membership... but we'll get to that in good time
For the time being I think we pretty much have an agreeement (though not final yet) amongst the panel members that all members as of 1st April currently have voting rights. Wether they excercise that or not - well, no-one can force them. All we CAN do is make sure people are informed, and to that effect it has been suggested that a general email alert will go out to the membership once the first voting thread on constitutional matters goes up to the public.
[edit for Leoba snuck in here just before me
- no worries, I'll text ya
; besides I have a hunch that Jny will send out email alerts again if it comes down to another 24h get your butts in gear type of thing
