If you have a specific proposal how to make the votes more informed, you
are most welcome. Protesting the result of a specific vote, post-vote,
on the grounds that "these guys don't know what they're talking about" -
does not seem very useful to me. Primarily because this argument can be
applied to virtually any vote and there's no way to arrive at a
practical conclusion distinguishing valid vote from invalid based on it
- anybody can claim that if his side lost then the other side didn't
know what they're talking about. If is a possibility that this may
indeed happen - our current voting system has very few safeguards
against uninformed voting and all you need to vote is a committer
access, which doesn't make one an expert in everything. But protesting
result of a particular vote is not the way to fix the problem, if it exists.
