I think I know philosophically the meaning of the term 'canonical email address' but I would like to know if it has an alternative or more exacting meaning technically speaking.

thanks,

Bill, maybe you can report on our status with respect to have canonical e-mail addresses for all of our members on the board call.  I agree that this is an avenue worth exploring, at least for votes pertaining to working groups.

                                Thanks,
                                -- Mike

+1. Note that if each voter had one canonical email address associated with
their OpenID of record, email voting would meet these requirements for the
time being.
