G'day all...
"someone doing it by hand could."
and indeed, someone doing it by hand did!
As I mentioned on the meta page, I've dropped notes in to all guarantor members, but will hold on the supporting members for a bit to see if the substr approach might be better (to be honest, I don't really fully understand how that would work! :-) )
I also asked for a confirmation email that my vote was received properly, and received it promptly, which was great - so for me at least, the system worked great :-)
best to all,
Peter PM.

Please feel free to amend.
I suggest we go and subst it onto the userpage of everyone who's signed
up -
will only take a few minutes even without AWB.
Looks good. Actually, not using AWB is probably better - a lot of people have a link on their meta talk page to a talk page on their home project, AWB won't be able to follow those links, someone doing it by hand could.
