Yes, it is. (I thought we had agreed on considerung previously noted
votes via mail, thus I mailed my votes before our last meething)

It should be up to the council member in question - if one feels he's
able to vote before the meeting i see no problem with doing so. I've
some ambivalent feelings about votes after a meeting though ...

The number should be somewhat limited to make sure all council members
who are able to attend a meeting are present. Having a 50% attendance
limit for meetings allows us to have 3 members being able to vote by
mail - that might work as an indirect limit.
