    Re: LSC Proposal 0.99 —Dan Boger
   (...) This is new? Only the committee and people who are eligable for membership in the LSC can vote? I thought we were defining the general membership in LDraw.org so that everyone can vote? I think this paragraph should say: LDraw.org Members will (...) (21 years ago, 5-May-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
   
        Re: LSC Proposal 0.99 —Tim Courtney
   (...) I don't believe the beginning part is new (eligible LSC members can vote) it is new, but I added the ad-hoc group in there for those in the ad-hoc who are ineligible for LSC membership. Track Changes didn't highlight it in Word. I am for that (...) (21 years ago, 5-May-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
   
        Re: LSC Proposal 0.99 —Tim Courtney
     (...) That statement (aside from the ad-hoc addition) was in Version 0.6, the first version I posted publicly. I found it in my local text file, as well as in the post here: (URL) strongly in favor of at least restricting the vote to only those (...) (21 years ago, 5-May-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
   
        Re: LSC Proposal 0.99 —Dan Boger
   (...) huh. (...) you're supporting that only LSC-eligable can vote, or that the ad-hoc group can vote? I think everyone can vote - but if we say that's not so, then I think the ad-hoc part should be removed. Why the special treatment? On Mon, May (...)

        Re: LSC Proposal 0.99 —Tim Courtney
   (...) Both, but moreso that only LSC-eligable. I'd rather the LSC be selected by people who are familiar with the other programmers and potential members, as well as the issues the LSC will be dealing with. I think this is a very important concern, (...) (21 years ago, 6-May-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
   
        Re: LSC Proposal 0.99 —Dan Boger
   (...) I'm actually half and half on it. I do see reasons why to limit it, but for some reason I'm a little wary of accepting it without discussion. (...) Well, at least I haven't noticed it before, otherwise I would have probably mentioned it. But (...) (21 years ago, 6-May-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

        Re: LSC Proposal 0.99 —Larry Pieniazek
     (...) I've been thinking about this and I think I mildly favor LSC elections open to all ldraw.org members. But I waver on it. (21 years ago, 6-May-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
   
        Re: LSC Proposal 0.99 —Orion Pobursky

        Re: LSC Proposal 0.99 —Willy Tschager
     (...) there are reasons why I put stress on a restriction. (URL) took me almost a year to get a deeper understanding of the stuff I was dealing with and feel comfortable with cond. line, BFC, bad vertex sequences and the like. 'til one hasn't (...)

        Re: LSC Proposal 0.99 —Travis Cobbs
     (...) I personally feel the restriction is a good idea. However, playing devil's advocate, I feel obliged to point out that since it would increase my voting power (since I am eligible as a software author), it's in my best interests to be in favor (...)

         Re: LSC Proposal 0.99 —John Riley
     (...) I would be one of those who would be prevented from voting (at least this year), and I don't have a strong objection to not being able to vote. The restriction is designed to make the LSC a technical group voted on by technically involved (...) (21 years ago, 8-May-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
   
        Re: LSC Proposal 0.99 —Steve Bliss
   (...) I feel voting for LSC members should be open to the general group. I've got 2 reasons for this: 1. I trust people enough that they'll deal with their own capabilities for discernment in this area. 2. I don't want to have to sort out who gets (...)

        Re: LSC Proposal 0.99 —Tim Courtney
   (...) I see your points and agree with 2 and 3, but only partially with 1. Anyways, there's about equal response for or against limitations. Not totally sure on what to do - I'll let it simmer for a bit. (I should note that if there was no (...) (21 years ago, 13-May-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
   
        Re: LSC Proposal 0.99 —Larry Pieniazek
     (...) I would rephrase that... under the most prevalent current limitation scheme being floated, (LSC eligible==LSC voting eligible) you would not be able to, and I would barely squeak by. Certainly other schemes could be floated, with different (...) (21 years ago, 16-May-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
   
        Re: LSC Proposal 0.99 —Tim Courtney
   (...) Well, it's simmered a bit. There's been no outcry one way or another. I think for simplicity's sake, the proposal should change to allow anyone to vote for who is on the LSC, not just those who are LSC eligible. I don't think the stakes are (...)

        Re: LSC Proposal 0.99 —Steve Bliss
