That was my point, paypal has been an issue multiple times. While we 
should strive to make this as rare as possible, a world in which we will 
never have payment issues seems to be very unlikely and we need to make 
it easy for members to notice that something has gone wrong and correct 
it (the MWG has afaik long proposed displaying a badge in the members 
OSM profile as positive confirmation of membership).

The second issue is clearly of our own making. But we do not currently 
know if either had anything to do with the issue you experienced, and 
members mistakenly not being allowed to vote could be anywhere between 0 
and 121 (?).

Realistically we can't make the board elections hostage to there being 
no issues at all. I would be happy if all issues that have been bought 
to the attention of the MWG have been resolved by the meeting. Maybe we 
need to modify the articles to make it clear that complaints wrt 
eligibility need to be submitted a suitable number of days before the 
election closing.
