[OpenID] Eliminating OpenID proxy voting

The OpenID IPR Process Document https://openid.net/wordpress-content/uploads/2017/06/OIDF-Policy-Process-Document-Final-6-19-2017.pdf allows for proxy voting in foundation-wide elections.  This has hardly ever been utilized in practice.  Furthermore, our voting tool does not support it well.

Proxy voting was designed primary to enable a member to have their legal counsel vote on their behalf.

As part of modernizing our IPR processes, I am proposing to simplify them by eliminating this seldom-used feature.  Does anyone want to comment on this proposal?

                                                       Thanks,
                                                       -- Mike
