I agree

Ok

good. We'll just have to remember this in 2 years from now... Should we
have an online agenda ? :-)

Shouldn't we put a maximum number ? What if somebody have (let's dream)
50 votes... If there is a problem with him, we'll have to find 75 people
"against" him ?
I think if 30 or 40 are "against", a new "election" must be decided...
Or a vote could occurs, the "pro" vs. the "cons" ?


That said, Mark and Cedric have my votes for now :-)
