True. I was hoping no one would notice, however, because that gets tedious (although once you have the ballots, it can be automated to a large extent). At some point, we should re-examine policy and run some controls to see if a voting method more closely designed for what we are actually doing might be more appropriate. In the middle of a voting cycle is probably not the right time for that, though, no matter what makes things easiest for me. > -- > Ciaran McCreesh > Mail : ciaran dot mccreesh at blueyonder.co.uk > > Thanks, I guess :), Ferris -- Ferris McCormick (P44646, MI) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Developer, Gentoo Linux (Devrel, Sparc)
