I too would also like an answer to that. My reason (and maybe Holger's too) is I'd say that there is no possibility of guaranteeing real permanent absolute secrecy in a vote that we can practically conduct over the Internet (at least, not one where the results are also trustworthy), so there is going to be some sort of compromise, and it is essential to understand the nature of that compromise in order to come to any conclusion about whether it might be a good idea to do the the thing that we're really talking about.
