Joop was appointed election administrator, not polling administrator. There 
has been NO restriction on the ability of any member of the group to ask 
any questions he or she desires, in what ever form they desire, using any 
technology they desire.

While the Polling Booth Joop uses has much better security than pollcat 
does, it also requires special access to develop materials. Under the 
circumstances which include a tight deadline and a large volume of 
material, doing it the way I suggested (and which the Names Council Task 
Force seemed comfortable with) seemed more expedient. Sorry for the confusion

That's a little harsh. The results at pollcat are clearly visible to anyone 
who wants to see them. My account password for these polls will be passed 
to the Task Force so that they can get more detailed data for their report.

If you would rather answer either the questionnaire emailed to the group by 
Philip, or the version in 10 emails from YJ, feel free. The task - 
immediately - is to meet the requirements of the Task Force by whatever 
legitimate means exist.

Also, for the sake of this simpleton, what is GA, that seems to be

The General Assembly of the Domain Name Supporting Organization. This 
Working Group is part of the GA.
