While I concur that probably quite a number of sysops even are able to provide an intelligent vote on the subject, I don't think that should materialise for the simple reasons that it's not a popularity poll and this is a technical mandate only...
For the first time in many many FTSC-elections there are competent candidates, nothing but competent candidates. In the past there have been nominations for pure political reasons, or to make certain there was a balance between Z1 and Z2 standing members while that is totally irrelevant, or simply to upset or annoy an opponent, etc... No political shit-show this time ...
Plus, a full nodelist-wide election (in my opnion) would make this way too top-heavy for its intended purpose....
DC> Does it take a change to P4 for such a change to actually happen?
The FTSC itself decides upon that "intra muros". Check 'www.ftsc.org' to find the procedures ...
DC> (That's a serious question, I'd like to know).
Has your quest for knowledge been satisfied or do you need Gandalf's number?
