We do need a better forum with voting capabilies.

Hello, Eric!
Ok, now I’m back..
It seems that I misunderstood your meaning of the word “leader”.
You know this can be a very important word and we need to be sure of
what we mean in this early stages.
Now when I see that you instead mean more of “administrator” I fully
support your idea.
If an administrator is needed due to the workload on everybody, I
support the idea of electing one.
I vote also for Gale.
Maybe we could start off in a new, better forum with voting capabilies, like http://leparlement.org/test

They are all accessible right on the web. A standard mbox could also be distributed.
There is no way (but for the admin) to remove or modify an existing post. In the future I expect the addition of PGP signatures, an admin will then only be able to remove content.
2 Can we provide a hyperlink directly to an individual message in the archiveor where it is located?;
Yes, all posts are accessible with an url like
http://leparlement.org/id, the id is auto generated from the post’s
subject, thus it should look rather readable.
3 In our case, can the voters on an issue made public?;
They are all public, just click on a result, they should appear in a popup. I don’t plan to have anonymous votes anytime in the future, but a voter’s relationship with his real life identity can/could be made anonymous.

Removing or modifying a post is not a feature, it’s just the logical flaw with a server. With PGP signatures, modifications will be made impossible, but there will still be the possibility to block or remove a post.
The way to go around that flaw is that users will have to be aware of it, and check that their posts are replicated on at least one other server.

Right now this is not possible, everybody is in the global list, and there is no filter yet.
But I’m planning it for the coming weeks. Users coming on the server will see all available lists, and will choose which one they want to follow, and indicate the threshold under which posts will be hidden.
For example a poll asking:
To vote you go on the website, login, and vote, or you reply with a mail containing the string -1, 0 or +1 (the vote has to be at the beginning of a line).
Using the electoral list “TOP” (containing 5 members) the result could be +4.
A visitor can select the TOP list, and indicate a threshold of +2, which means that this poll will be visible. Another visitor using the same list could select a threshold of +5, which means it will not be visible.
An electoral list acts as a moderators group.

On the other hand, software Emmanuel is developing is not yet tested, especially not in bigger numbers, so we have no tradition we can rely on.
In order of not going into eventual dead end, my suggestion is to make sure into this software capabilities, help Emmanuel to eventually improve them in order to be maximally safe that we are not going in wrong direction. In this way, what I find very important, we do not have to worry about loosing capital this group already has as long as it is promoted around at several places, but we can make it actually prosper.
As long as Leparlement is actually copying whole communication that is being done at top – politics, we do not either risk anything if we keep top politics as basic node and Leparlement as an option everyone can actually choose to be primary one.

impossible, but there will still be the possibility to block or remove a

Also fully public. And anybody will be able to create and manage any
number of electoral list.
Right now this is not possible, everybody is in the global list, and
there is no filter yet.
But I’m planning it for the coming weeks. Users coming on the server
will see all available lists, and will choose whichone they want to
follow, and indicate the threshold under which posts will be hidden.
For example a poll asking:
- are software patents stupid?
To vote you go on the website, login, and vote, or you reply with a mail
containing the string -1, 0 or +1 (the vote has to be at the beginning
of a line).
Using the electoral list “TOP” (containing 5 members) the result could
be +4.
A visitor can select the TOP list, and indicate a threshold of +2, which

google groups => parlement
But you can and are welcome to use parlement, as some of you already do.
Your login is the name you use in your mails, me it’s echarp for example. Do login before you vote, otherwise you will use the “anon” persona which only controls one voice on every issue.
Of course all the votes directly set in mails are accounted for!
Like this one => +1 which is a valid vote used and accounted for.
As the need arise, we can also start other forums in parlement.
