[Chapter-delegates] 2014 Internet Society Board of Trustees Elections

[Christian de Larrinaga]

It isn't my vote it is the chapter's. 

Actually my concern is that by allowing such an extensive opportunity to
change votes it opens up a prospect for a dutch auction..  my last vote
is now for "x" unless  Mssrs "y", "z" or "a" come up with a better
offer.  Not suggesting that offer may be "bitcoins" but ....

Maybe I'm being unfair. That is why I asked why it is a good idea.

Also the practicalities of seeking views and involving the whole chapter
in such an extensive iterative ongoing activity doesn't seem practical
to me.
