18:40 < pascal_ch_lan> Pascal Gloor (ch.lan) Following up the question regarding Brexit. The only impact I can see is for RIPE NCC employees that might loose their right to work in NL. My comment is that NCC should make contact with NL authorities regarding this potential issue.

19:38 < pascal_ch_lan> I have to go, thanks for your work Fergal, see ya later/tomorrow
19:38 < pascal_ch_lan> (2nd time you said my name was almost perfect :))
19:39 < Fergal_RIPENCC> I knew it had to be like that if first was wrong. Glad I got a second go :)
19:41 < eth0> Does the sample e-mail link work so we can get an extra vote? :P
19:43 < Fergal_RIPENCC> I really, really hope not ;)
19:44 < Fergal_RIPENCC> It was a test account so it won't work but good idea :)
19:45 < eth0> Also, a more serious question.. How do you ensure a physical participant can't vote remotely too? Is this done purely on the selection from the LIR Portal?
19:45 < eth0> Only if you know the answer Fergal.. No need to ask it.. :)
19:46 < Fergal_RIPENCC> Hi eth0 - Yes indeed. The software doesn't even allow two vote reegistrations from the same member.
19:47 < Fergal_RIPENCC> Physical attendees are allowed to vote electronically but they won't get a paper ballot if they do.
19:47 < eth0> Oh okay.. Didn't know how the physical ballots were handed out..
19:47 < Fergal_RIPENCC> Can I ask if the voting link works for someone?
19:47 < eth0> It works for me
19:48 < Fergal_RIPENCC> Excellent. Thanks for letting me know.
19:49 < frinnst> heh, there we go :-)
19:49 < eth0> Haha
19:49 < Fergal_RIPENCC> :)
