[rpd] Policy Proposal: PDP Working Group (WG) Guidelines and Procedures

[Fernando Frediani]

Hello
Your understanding is not quiet correct, because you are assuming all 
are legitimate voters and they should not be. The key thing is to accept 
a clear cut line.
For example if the minimum time period to be registered in the RPD list 
for at least 6 months then anyone with 5 months and a couple of days 
will not be a legitimate voter and that is not a problem, even if the 
person has been contributing to the discussion for that past 5 months. 
If that person remains committed to the process he/she will become a 
voter for the next election.

It's quiet normal to require someone a minimal commitment like this 
example above with a very objective requirement before allowing them to 
take part on decisions, otherwise the process becomes fragile at the 
point to bring unnecessary subjectivity.
