Wow. From a participation standpoint that seems pretty pathetic. If 30 is t=
he average that means most people never vote.=20

I would have assumed that having a vote would mean that people would be exp=
ected to vote periodically or if not then loose the privilege. =20

Maybe this should be the case?
Not voting within 6 months or 12 months on a single RFC would mean you=E2=
=80=99ve either moved on with your life and lost the voting right=E2=80=A6 =
I think that=E2=80=99s similar to parliament systems=E2=80=A6

You stop having a senator vote as soon as you leave the senate(doing someth=
ing else with your life), you can pick it up whenever you=E2=80=99re back t=
o be active=E2=80=A6
