If the vote is bound to the other project: does this mean the other
project has to decide about a "delegate"? Could the organisation revoke
that delegation or replace him? Would we therefore only work with
projects which are setup properly? (This would mean that a project
organized like PHP won't get a vote)

Right now accounts (and therefore voting rights) are handed out based on
individual contributions. And I think that's a good model to follow for
the votes.

The way I understood the rule was to be able to give regular
participants in discussions, (assuming they actually make useful
contributions ;-) ) voting karma even though they don't contribute code.
And I wonder why that should have more precise rules than the ones we
use to hand out accounts. Basically every candidate I imagine could get
a "proper" account easily, if they want.
