</div>Eh???? I am not happy that the karma requirement, which was dropped after<br>
protest the last time around, is being raised again at the last minute!<br>

I obviously had exactly the opposite assumption from you: I had assumed that<br>
in the absence of a proposal to the contrary, the same rules as last time<br>
would be in place.<br>

</div>Yes. That is a good point. So, I would like to hear from anyone who might<br>
still be affected by this new proposal to re-instate the 25-points rule to<br>
understand if it is likely to disqualify people who should reasonably be<br>
considered part of the community.</blockquote><div>You keep calling it a "new proposal", but that is factually inaccurate; I can see how some people might have failed to realize it, but this has been clearly stated since August 14.
