[Foundation-l] Election rules modification regardingsuffrageissues raised on this list

[Dan Rosenthal]

In the past, Delphine as well as a few others (mainly technical  
people, names escape me at the moment) were listed as independent  
contractors. I've seen no indication that has actually changed (i.e.  
nobody saying X, a past contractor, has been hired as an actual  
employee).
