9 I could agree with this only if there were something in place that keeps
10 a new GLEP from being posted until it meets the proper layout. I don't
11 want to see completely worthless entries that are still a work in
12 progress. I would like it to at least be somewhat complete before I
13 spend time looking through them.
14
15 I'm thinking something like a barrier to entry, but not for editing.
16 Give the GLEP authors and a group of people accepted by the author
17 access to edit the GLEP.

23 I agree with you here. Voting over a mailing list just isn't very
24 efficient. Perhaps a login-restricted web page? How about an app on
25 toucan? "vote glep19 yes" or something equally as insane...
