Re: Re: SUO: SUMO Ballot Results
adam,
there's definitely nothing wrong. and no wrong-doing was suggested. with such a close call (17 yes/16 no/9 abstain) we're a little away from concensus. i think a vote more tilted in its totality to the YES side would serve us better. again this is not a contest for me and i don't look at it as if it were a lose/win situation. i just hope the discussions continue and a concensus is reached on the SUMO.

Everyone had the option of posting their votes directly to the list, and
Jim forwarded all the comments he received. What's wrong?
