The idea is that non-voting geeks don't need to care about this vote, anyway. All of the changes we're making are procedural, not structural. Both the quorum changes and the supermajority changes should have the same result as the current two-vote system (a vote with multiple options that ignores supermajority/quorum, followed by a vote about the winning option with just Yes/No/FD that takes supermajority & quorum into account) in all reasonable circumstances. > I wonder how it would stand up to the scrutiny of a lot more eyes. I'd question the value of the scrutinisation of eyes that aren't interested in the details. (The people who are interested in the details are, by definition, voting geeks) Cheers, aj -- Anthony Towns <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://azure.humbug.org.au/~aj/> I don't speak for anyone save myself.
