Why is it harsh? I certainly did not mean it to be. It was
meant to be a statement of fact.
But I think asking me to scp the message over to my house,
putting it on removable media, cold booting my laptop to a lice cd;
checking the message, manually editing the corresponding files on
vote.debian.org, and making it impossible to do a vote recount as has
been requested is something that should never be done, right?
Just making it impossible to do a recount would be enough to
justify not counting the vote, IMO.

Contact me offline with detailks, and we'll see what we can do.

The vigor of civilized societies is preserved by the widespread sense
that high aims are worth-while. Vigorous societies harbor a certain
extravagance of objectives, so that men wander beyond the safe
provision of personal gratifications. All strong interests easily
become impersonal, the love of a good job well done. There is a sense
of harmony about such an accomplishment, the Peace brought by
something worth-while. Alfred North Whitehead, 1963, in "The History
of Manned Space Flight"
