[governance] Issues concerning standing IGC members

A postal vote (I am assuming that "mail" in French means postal mail, not
electronic mail) will disenfranchise some members of this list, including
myself, since it will be either very expensive (international courier) or an
unreasonably long voting period (up to three months each way if it even
arrives) to use our postal service. Perhaps members can stipulate the voting
means they would like for their personal use in future elections. Geneva,
Switzerland, for instance, offers Internet, postal (the most commonly used)
and in-person voting options as choices for voters. Can we consider the
same?

As an aside, I think that an INTERNET Governance list should consider
Internet and email options and resources for inclusion, when reasonable, as
I think it is in this case. 

Thanks for your consideration.
Saludos, Ginger

Bonjours chers tous,

Je pense que le vote par mail est le seul raisonnable quand on veut  
s'occuper de gouvernance de l'internet.

salutations cordiales.
