Explanation of votes

2.2: If individual governments have objections based on contradiction with 
specific national laws, such objections should be submitted through the 
Community Objections procedure.


I do  not see why we are telling them they _should_ submit an objection.  They 
_may_ submit, but why are we placing an obligation on them to do so?


5.2  A higher threshold of the Board should be required to approve a string.

5.5  Approval of a string should only require a simple majority of the Board 
except when the expert input indicates otherwise, in which case a higher 
threshold should be required.

Voted no on these two because i do not understand.

In this recommendation I think there is only 1 vote, whether to uphold the 
objection or not.
I do not understand under what circumstance there will be a vote to approve a 
string under this recommendation.

As far as I can tell, they will not be asked to approve a strong, until the end 
of the whole application process.  That vote should be a majority vote.
