I agree that more time should be allowed for voting, but in this
instance there was a need to get the release(s) out as soon as possible.
I also agree that an email can be forged, but in this case the vote
releases were mentioned on the private list before it appeared on the
public lists.
So, yeah... we could do more to make the voting process secure, but so
far it hasn't been a problem.

Ok, thanks for the explanation Ean.
Not just that, but there was no weekend timeframe available for this
voting period. Other people who are more active may only work on
ofbiz during the weekend, so you need to allow them time to become
aware of such a vote.
