About wheighted votes ...
TR> Fidonet has never done this in the past and probably never will.
Actually, it was introduced by IC-decree already a long time ago, never repealed but also never invoked. There were the times with a zone with only 1 sysop, a zone where the ZC did not understand english (that situation still exists, though it be a different zone), a zone with hardly nodes which Carol desperately tried to salvage at the time when Z2 had something like 7-8000 listed individual sysops.
That equality principle ensured that 50-60 sysops could grab the whole of the nodelist in a strangle hold ...
TR> The present system ensures that each area (RC) gets a vote which means TR> bid areas can't dominate the vote, it's like the senate system in the US.
Odd comparison because big areas do dominate the presidential vote ....
