Hello,

Further to my previous email below and a discussion with Mr Quintiliani, I have decided to amend my vote.

Daniel refuses to acknowledge my non-English vote, and while I maintain that this is not a valid position for him to hold, I don't think it's worth arguing over petty technicalities. There was no problem with the language used to cast votes in until one was created, and perhaps we can just keep it that way.

Therefore, I am amending my vote to NO.

Regards
albino

Hello,

The existence of this motion implies that non-English votes ARE currently valid. I do not think that stating that "only English language votes shall be accepted" is acceptable, given that this motion is operating under the premise that non-English votes are accepted throughout OpenNIC. A person proposing a vote must not be allowed to alter the rules under which our democracy operates.

Therefore, my vote is HEIN HEIN.

Regards
albino

1. All OpenNIC proposals put up for vote shall be in the English language.
2. All votes for OpenNIC proposals shall be in the English language, and votes which are not in English shall be considered invalid.

These rules are only applicable to proposals put up for vote, and to the votes themselves. These rules are not applicable to discussions on the mailing list or on IRC.

The proposal shall take effect immediately after passing.

This vote shall be done in "Aye/Yes" and "Nay/No" style. Only English language votes shall be accepted.
