Dear all,

I find the lack of faith in the current system disturbing. Since I do not
understand what extra would gain with this rule, I would love if you could
give a simple example on the type of situations you wish to solve with more
elaborate rules? Could one not, in the current system, speak up against a
nomination? What if it was not within a company, but say that I nominated
all of my friends in the Danish geo society? Should we not forbid that?

Thanks,

Greg
