I have not. As a matter of fact I just thought that this was a good way to
start again the discussin of what "PAB membership" exactly means, and how to
handle conflicts. I know that there is no simple (and perhaps no possible)
solution to all the issues involved, but we need some "brain work" espeically
if we want PAB membership significantly expanded and POC being elected mostly
by PAB.

Creating additional e-mail addresses is a trivial point. But formalities don't
solve real problems.
Now I'm curious about what other people than "control" multiple votes (through
e-mail address than typically never contribute to the list....) have done....

Amadeu, voting late, voting once.
