I didn't say anything about the ballot options being ignored -- I said the constitution doesn't say anything about ignoring foundation documents -- ie the social contract or the DFSG. We're actually doing that right now in a sense, by continuing to leave bugs like #199810 unfixed. > I certainly would not want the secretary acting as if controversial > proposals were a true of the project goals before they had been > voted on. Instead, he's acting as though they're false before they've been voted on -- personally, I don't think that's any better. A controversial false statement is just the inverse of a controversial true statement, afterall. Anyway, I think I've said my piece. Cheers, aj
