RE: [nbd] DRAFT of a proposal regarding a Nomic Secretary



yes, I didn't want to force a reply-to if people didn't want it, but I find
it annoying too.

and yes, the software I have could automate voting, I'd just need some time
to develop it (unless one of you knows zope/python).

I hadn't thought about web-if-y-ing the nomic, I was mostly just thinking
about it for convenience, but I might be able to do more.

(By the way, David, can a "Reply-To:" line be added to the mail coming from 
the list?)

I think that might also be good ... I tend to shy away from omnibus rules 
and splitting it helps me, too.  (I've also found that omnibus -proposals- 
are bad; if somebody doesn't like section 824(b)(iv), he votes the whole 
thing down.)

Does anyone have the expertise to design a mailbot or web-based voting 
system?  That frees up some of the secretary's duties.  (That's one nice 
think about Yahoo! groups, there's a polling system in place.)
