I think for n-ary votes we need a different system. Only being able to cast one vote with winner takes all has a lot of downsides. I'm not sure what distinguishes binary votes that only need >50%. I don't think as simple as whether or not there is code involved; for example changing our RFC processes and such should require more agreement than that. -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
