Alan Coopersmith brought up [10] the topic of email voting, according to the
constitution, stating that consenting to vote by e-mail does not indicate a vote
in favour and that e-mail votes must thus be unanimous. Roy Fielding followed up
[11] with some explanation of why, with the intention that opensolaris could
migrate to an independant legal entity under the same constitution at some stage
in the future. Roy noted [12] that these were only in place to resolve arguments
that could not be resolved in any other way, during the rate ocasions where
there was significant disagreement.
