To be clear -- I don't think what happened is in conflict with the _FESCo_
policy about tickets (see link above). FESCo does not, as far as I can see,
have any specific policies about how votes related to a Change should be
conducted. And I don't think there is a general "FESCo can never reconsider
decisions!" rule.

But like I said, I _don't_ think this revote was as visible or transparent
as it should have been, and I agree that that doesn't really fit with the
intention of the Changes policy.

Yep, I definitely agree with this.
