please hesitate before posting - of course you have the right to hold as many polls as you want for as many causes as you want, and also the right to campaign for the said polls. But others have the equal right not to vote on the polls - either because they cannot be bothered, or because they do not think things like this can be decided by a poll. I have organised and participated in very many bofs in many cities of India - some with attendance of just 2 people and others with a pretty big attendance and the most successful way of doing this is when the person who first proposes it also fixes a venue and announces it - then those who can come come. Forming an organising committee for a bof and holding elections etc does not work. -- regards Kenneth Gonsalves _______________________________________________ BangPypers mailing list BangPypers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/bangpypers
