All that's needed is direct links to the global poll from the local<br>
community web sites so everyone can partecipate.<br></blockquote><div><br>And what happens if the options in the poll doesn't fit with a specific community needs?<br> <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">

</div>Completely disagree. And what about those Mageia users that don't have a<br>
local community or that prefer spending their time on the global forum<br>
rather than in local forums?<br></blockquote><div><br>As same in the parliaments in the Real World (TM) there are mixed groups whith their own voice and vote.<br><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
<br>
Again there is zero need for a representative democracy on the Internet.<br>
It only distorts the true wishes of the users and potentially creates<br>
local ego-power-positions that only cause controversy and in-fights.<br></blockquote><div><br>I think in a representative meritocracy, in fact... No place for egos and controversy are if the work is evaluated.<br> </div>
