As I said, I misread it, now I'm not so worried! :) I think in your case above, if someone were to vote against it, but leave an intent hanging for 6 days without objecting to it, then that's the voter's mistake, as long as everything was clearly labelled. The only remaining concern I have is that if you take something from the Proposal Pool (undistributed) and put it out there, it misses getting a Proposal #. I'll let omd the rulekeepor decide how to handle this recordkeeping bit. -G.
