This is not an objection, but I'll put down some status in Japan here.
 
I think it is reasonable to use SqP list for voters. However, most 
of Japanese Squeakers do not see the SqP site so often, because of the 
language barriers. They simply prefer Squeak-ja mailing list.

Voting should be open to everyone, so I think it is important to achieve 
some user-friendliness in registration.

I would like to do translation/m17n work for the new voting system. (whether
it is high or low-tech).

Regards,
