Ted Dunning created WHIMSY-297:
----------------------------------
Summary: Never, never say "tabled"
Key: WHIMSY-297
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WHIMSY-297
Project: Whimsy
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Ted Dunning
The secretary tool in whimsy uses the term "table" to mean that a decision on
an item is deferred. Unfortunately, that means exactly the opposite in British
English.
It would be much better to use the term "deferred" to avoid confusion.
Here is an example from a recent board report:
{quote}The following resolutions were passed unanimously:
Establish the Apache Submarine Project (Wangda Tan, VP)
Establish the Apache SINGA Project (Wang Wei, VP)
The Establish the Apache Petri Project resolution was *tabled*
