I'm having a hard time understanding that mail - the rules for the
election are clearly published on
http://www.postgresql.eu/about/elections/ which is clearly mentioned in
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgeu-general/2010-03/msg00001.php and
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgeu-general/2010-02/msg00004.php and the
blog post done by magnus(and the volume on pgeu-general in that months
was less than 10 mails in total so really hard to miss).

I don't see why we should do that - the rules have been followed and
announced appropriatly...
