Only people who have posted or committed patches as of last week get to
vote.

What if someone is gone away on vacation?  They'll come back and find
that we discussed, nominated, and elected in 6 days.  This seems too
soon.

And anyone can skew the results unless we limit who can vote.  :-)

I'm not sure we need server space.  PicoBSD is part of FreeBSD and as
such, we have space on people.freebsd.org.

I think we will be shooting ourselves in the foot if we try to seperate
ourselves from the "mainline" people.  It seems to me that the people
who commit to PicoBSD also commit to FreeBSD.
