Thanks for the feedback, good points.

1) That people don't reply to a post doesn't mean they don't have an opinion. 
The new forum for example allows to give emoticon reactions. This means that 
people don't need to comment but a simple thumps up or down is enough to 
express their opinion. Making the voting more accessible means that even the 
silent people have a change to participate in this community vote.

2) That poll was not made public. On a public vote you see the usernames below 
the different options.

3) If you see who voted for what, you can also see who commented. Besides, by 
using thumps up, users can agree with other people their reactions instead of 
replying with the same comment or "Same reasoning as user xx"

4) That is a valid point. I don't have a clear answer to that right now.

Greetings,

Vincent
