This wording does not prevent the GA to vote in using other solutions than 
the DNSO Secretariat. Would the NC and the BoD consider the results of such 
votes? The Secretariat owns the voting list (e-mails). Could we establish a 
polling committee having access to the list and establishing an acceptable 
authentification system?
