But how do we ensure uniqueness? emails are easy to come by. We don't want

on the StC (ldraw.org steering committee) membership and so forth, ballot
stuffing is, in my view, much more serious of a problem.

We've seen quite a few good (and some overboard) suggestions in this thread

Yep. I think the right question to ask here is:

With 0.7 of the LSC proposal getting generally good reviews so far, it's likely that we're close to a final draft on the LSC proposal and it's time to start thinking about the things needed to make it happen.
