I vote A . I say we trust the current project members to set their own criteria and contribution bar for membership in the project. "Popularity" in the project is based primarily on contributions anyway. That's how one builds a reputation within any FOSS project.

Dear Leadership Committee,
Despite the previous vote including a provision to allow for spelling and grammatical fixes, for the abundance of clarity for all leaders please vote on this amended version which includes all the small grammar fixes from each respondent.
The previous vote should be considered advisory and void in so far as it allowed this revision to be drafted. Thank you to everyone for baring with this drawn out process.
Ballot:
a. Adopt the internal membership policy attached. b. Do not adopt the policy.
Best Regards, Martin Owens

Dear Leadership Committee,
As discussed; the two week consultation is finished. Thanks to everyone who came to the meetings, commented here on the mailing list and sent private messages. I've distilled everything down into a internal policy document which we can now vote on.
The preference from other board members was to put this strait to a vote since we've talked about this for a long time. So hopefully this represents a balanced and fair membership process.
See the attached draft policy document that we are voting on here.
Ballot
a. Adopt the internal membership policy as is. b. Adopt it after these minor modifications. c. Do not adopt this policy, or anything like it. d. Do something else.
Best Regards, Martin Owens
