Is that possible?There's the General Resolution but it's supposed to be used only to override Council decisions, so you should go with a Council vote first.
Could we temporarily re-purpose Gentoo's election infrastructure to hold an all-developer opinion poll?
I imagine a poll asking for opinions, nothing binding. Furthermore, since Gentoo's voting infrastructure uses the Condorcet method, we could have multiple options.
A poll-preceding phase where voters can submit options for the poll would help to take everyone's position into account.
And then, performing a poll where everyone can rank the available options should allow us to get a pretty good idea about what the community of Gentoo developers thinks about this topic.
@gentoo-elections: would you be willing to assist in such a venture? - Flow
